Wonderful audiences...
Every night sold out so far, just a few tickets left for Saturday matinee and evening.
Here are just a handful of the wonderful comments we have received from our audiences so far... A testament to everyone involved.
"This was one of the most beautiful and magical performances ever in the history of performance!"
"The beautiful atmosphere of the event touched my humanity."
"I was transported."
"Entertainment on another plane."
"It made me want to create and invent."
"A most inventive and atmospheric, quirky, passionate and unique event."
"It was wonderful to have the performance with the everyday life of the station happening all around. There were times when I felt the performance unified everyone. The beautiful words, performances, attention to detail, the lovely music, the care of the conductors and maids. Thank you!!"
"The music was really lovely, I could have curled up listening to it and fallen asleep."
"I am delighted."
...Three more shows to go...

Tickets...
The Ballad is selling out...! Tickets still available for Friday night, Saturday matinee (accessible and signed version) and Saturday night.
Book in advance with News from Nowhere bookshop, Bold Street Liverpool.
From the Art in Liverpool blog, by Ian Jackson:
'...From the moment you arrive and hand your ornately inscribed ticket to the conductor in his top hat and long black coat you enter a bygone era, reminding us again that this is the oldest passenger station in the world. It was opened in 1836 and the characters Juniper and Sonny have inhabited the place ever since, or is it just a rumour, an urban myth, they may even be pigeons.
I was lost in the magic... and the beauty.'
