from Suzy in Indiana, for the script “Wakt Family Reunion”

Well, the reunion is over, and the "Wakt Family Reunion" was a big hit! It was VERY minimally staged, and rehearsed, but so much fun!

from Jolie, West Salem High School (for The Talking Mime)

Just wanted to tell you thanks again for your presentation at our prom! It was such fun to see you [guys] interact with the guests. I heard several groups of kids talk about the "cool" stuff happening at the prom....and the mime act was included in their high points!

from Jennifer of the American Red Cross, Willamette Chapter (for Fredrick & Maude: A New Hobby)

from Jennifer (singing telegram)

I wanted to say thank you for everything. The pirate singing telegram was great. I will recommend your company to everyone. We loved the way he ad libbed and added all the personal information to his skit. Our bride to be said she hadn't laughed or smiled so much in a long time. Thanks again!!

from Rebekah (singing telegram)

Marion just left our office after singing for a much loved coworkers birthday. She was absolutely magnificent! She even mentioned his beloved crosswords-that was a great touch! We will be smiling over that for quite some time and the b-day boy was much pleased...Thank you so much for coming such a long way just to bring us all smiles. It is a b-day that Jon says he will never forget. Thank you for helping us show him that we love him!

from Robin (singing telegram)

Thank you so much, Marian. We all enjoyed your telegram so much! Larry was so happy it wasn't a belly dancer!

from Sharon (“A Stone’s Throw”)

a short note to let you know how much we all enjoyed our murder mystery! It was a hoot & we had a great time! Thanks again!
You know...I still think the butler did it.

from Sue, CASHTOOLS, Inc. (“Pigs, Pineapple and Poison”)

Thank you for the wonderful fun on the Willamette Queen. I really enjoyed it. I have always wanted to [attend] a murder mystery. You did a fantastic job!

I really appreciate it!

from Laura, WISHWEAVERS, LLC (“Pigs, Pineapple and Poison”)

Marian, the Murder Mystery today on board the Willamette Queen Sternwheeler was an absolute hoot! As I was describing to my husband how audience members would respond to cues (when one group or person heard a certain cue, they’d yell out “Hear, Hear!”, “It’s Perfect!”, “He’s Dead!” or sing “Tiny Bubbles”) we both started cracking up, just from my husband hearing me describe it. What a fun event! Thank you. I’m very impressed with the scripts you and Chris have written. I look forward to being on your e-mail list so I can keep posted on all future entertainment from Cwerks. Next time, I’ll bring my husband! Thanks again.

from Karen, Mid-Valley Arts Council (“The Talking Mime”)

The program worked out amazingly well. You did a GREAT job! I loved your [mime] piece, very cool.

from Judi (singing telegram)

I want to let you know how very much we enjoyed our singing telegram plus last night. I don’t remember the lady’s name that came, but oh my gosh, she was great! She used all the tidbits of information I gave her in the skit...It was great to know beforehand that all your performances are G rated even when kids aren’t there. You can be assured that we will pass the word around about Cwerks...Your talents for adlib are truly a gift. Thank you for the opportunity of sharing it!

Sincerely,
Judi
