More audience feedback
This ‘cloud’ of feedback is from people who saw Black Tonic in Birmingham in April 2009 - the cloud is again a representation of all the text from our ‘Guest Book’, which audience members are invited to write in after the performance.
Black Tonic - audience feedback cloud
This fantastic ‘word cloud’ programme was brought to my attention via Flatpack Festival’s blog.
So I thought I’d try it out on our own audience feedback.
See below the ‘cloud’ of feedback from people who saw Black Tonic in Manchester November 2008 - the cloud is a representation of all the text from our ‘Guest Book’, which audience members are invited to write in after the performance.
Thanks Mayfest
We had a great (and exhausting) time performing Black Tonic at Mayfest in Bristol over the May Bank Holiday weekend. We had sold out weeks before opening, and were really pleased that every single one of our audience members made it on the night, so not one place was wasted.
I’d like to say a big thanks to the performers who worked incredibly hard, also to our Bristol-based volunteers. And we’d like to thank everyone at Mayfest for their support, and the fantastic staff of the Mercure Holland House Hotel & Spa who accommodated the performance with such good humour.
Black Tonic at Mayfest Bristol
Black Tonic is off on its travels. After spending Easter in Birmingham at the Radisson SAS Hotel we’re off to Bristol to the Mercure Holland House Hotel & Spa, performing as part of Bristol’s Mayfest from 1-4 May 2009.
The people of Bristol have been so keen to get their hands on tickets that we have already SOLD OUT.
If you’re desperate to get in, it can be worth turning up on the day (15 mins before the shows start) and asking our Black Tonic Receptionist if there’s been any cancellations.

Filming antics at the hotel
We spent this afternoon filming the (faked) CCTV footage that appears as part of Black Tonic.
As you can see, its a glamorous job. The photo above shows our film maker Chris Keenan setting up his tripod in the bath, and trying to avoid getting dripped on by the shower.
The team were good sports as ever, and our performer Magda (dressed in the Radisson’s housekeeping uniform) already had the head of housekeeping fooled and thinking she’s a new member of his staff.
