  Caitlin Chartrand
• I can't get over how incredible the female lead was. Her energy was outstanding. I love the live music! All the music was great. I listen to the songs on repeat. I loved the fighting especially the stunt when the lead girl jumps off the knee when she's fighting. I love all the women fighting back and the intensity. I loved the cute little kiss at the end.

  Jordan S
• The live guitars. They added that extra something

  Daniel F.
• The cast had great energy and really seemed to be enjoying the show as much as the audience. It was very engaging. A fun evening out whether you're flying solo, on a date, or a family :)

  J. RC
• Very riveting from the start, great fight scene, and a interesting love twist

• The directing was on a whole new level this year. The singing and acting were better overall than previous years, which were already good. I'm impressed that every main and medium part was held down by someone with vocal talent. The lyrics and lines were generally more audible than previous years. Grace Clark totally redefined the Mary role in a great way. Love the continued annual refinements to the plot and script, such as Brunhilda's new role this year, or reenacting instead of just singing the tale of what happened to Sven's father's settlement. I brought friends, and they said it was super-fun. I still believe this easily has Broadway potential.

• The live guitars made the experience that much more enjoyable! Everyone did such a great job bringing to life different aspects of Norse Mythology.

  Benjamin Bassett
• My favorite part is always watching how much my kids get into the story and enjoy it. I also love how welcome we are to video record, and interact with loud and boisterous cheering.

  Kristina Hone
• It was well put together, and fun.

  Cas S
• Friendly staff, beautiful orchestration, live guitarists, the Valkyrie singers, the viking makeup and hair design, the encore

  Allie Mason
• Loved the music

  Jeremy C
• Grace lead the show with her facials and reactions. When things weren't very clear often I could tell at least how the audience should be feeling by looking at her

• I have attended "Valhalla" every year since 2021. I love the music and singing, and especially that there are changes and improvements to the production/directing/story every single year!
  
  The articulation this year was some of the best you've ever done. The costumes, hair, and makeup were excellent and culturally realistic! I was surprised that Sven did not have the Viking face paint as he has in previous productions, but loved that a younger-looking actor played him, next to the grown men and women Vikings. It made him LOOK like it was his first voyage/raid! His emoting was also the best I've ever seen from 'Sven.' It really felt like he was hesitant to pillage and kidnap!
  
  Also enjoyed how you placed the three boats this year. Other years it has felt that the boats crowded the stage. The various 'wave/weather' dances were interesting and helped indicate more of the weather they were sailing through!
  
  Sir Hector's acting and singing this year was as excellent and amazing as 2021's production! Good job! That is high bar to reach! Brunhilda being pregnant this year was fun and especially how Mother Molly was incorporated into her story line! I loved that Brunhilda got the "Let's go raid the French" line as well. That line is always funny, but for it to be given to a woman who just gave birth to twins was hilarious!
  
  The electric guitar playing on stage this year and last was awesome!!!! Keep up the excellent work!

  R. C. Peterson
• Great show with a lot of action!

  Michaelene Boyer
• It just gets better every year! The direction this year was great and little changes made the story so much more cohesive. Mary's doppelgänger showing up in Valhalla was great and clarifying that Sir Hector killed Sven's father was delightfully soap-opera-esque. My favorite change was having Mother Molly end up as a midwife for Brunhilda - just ... *chef's kiss*.

  Alicia Leitch
• I Loved the story, and music,it was all very enthralling and fun!

  Sydney H. Bridget
• All out exciting experience. Great energy from all the cast and band. The set design was so engaging and the limited scene changes this year made the story flow so much better. The music is memorable and has very perfect comedic moments. An easy show to rewatch and I love seeing the show grow each year!

  Ali Hatfield
• I'm not sure how you pulled this off, but the balance in talent was amazing to me. I'm sure one would like to have a shining star but everyone seemed to know there place very well without overshadowing who had a lead part at that time. Kudos to your sound and lighting crew. I don't believe that anything is a perfect 10, but I definitely would give this production a 9. Great evening…..thank you.

  Kirk H
• SO MUCH FUN!!! I had such a fun time watching the show.

  Caitlin Chartrand
• I've seen every production of Valhalla, either in person or on video, and I have to say I think the 2023 production is the absolute best. Having most of the leads playing live guitar really sold the rock-concert vibe, and the entire cast was fantastically talented. I love this show!

  Michelle Minson
• I loved the songs and the fun that the actors have.

  Vanessa A.
• The lights! The action! The characters were just likable. The live guitar music was amazing. My whole family enjoyed the adventure.

• I really enjoyed this clever, delightful "Valhalla" Viking Rock Opera!!! The story and music and costumes and sets are GREAT and the actors are MARVELOUS!!! Mary's singing is SUPERB!!! The Vikings playing the electric guitars are AWESOME!!! Great Viking ship!

  Diane Adams
• Diction and microphones were much better this year as was the emoting. The music is awesome every year (my third year attending, my first year bringing my three daughters)!

  R. Peterson
• We loved the whole show. Can not pick favorites because as a whole they made the musical awesome. We really enjoyed the few times the cast rushed the stage. And how engaging they all were with the audience. A great time.

  Kyna S.
• For sure a good fit for the town to support the arts

  Patty Porenta K. Hansen
• It was lively and fun.

  M.V.
• This was my third time seeing this show and it just keeps getting better and better. My son was bouncing to the music. I loved the live music and the lights. It made me feel like I was at a concert. I also loved the emotions from the characters. They were so intense. I love the story. There is nothing that made it drag. The Thor song with the lighting was really cool!

  Cynthia C.
• My friends and I go to Valhalla every year (this was my 3rd year, their 4th). This year's production was the best one yet. The music is delightfully fun (the album lives in my car's stereo). The choreography fits the music beautifully (especially for this year's version of The Fallen). The set gets better every year as well.

  John M.
• The whole performance was so good that I went three times. The first time was to show support to my friend Chelsea (Brunhilda), but the other two because it was that good as well as showing support. The Music was amazing especially We are the Sling and the last song before the encore. I loved how there was comedy mixed in with the fighting and singing. Fantastic performance I say.

  Michael P. Shanklin
• Sven and Magnus playing the guitar totally made the show for me! I have been to Valhalla every year since the beginning and this was my favorite. This cast did an awesome job of bringing the guitar back to the front and leaning into the different musical styles that make Valhalla special. Well done!

  Alicia Leitch
• It's a very fun atmosphere

  Ace Penrod
• I freaking loved everything about it!!! Sven and Mary absolutely killed it! I wish the music was on Spotify, because I would listen to it all the freaking time!!! The shredding was so great, and Mary's voice was literally like listening to an angel. The setting was great, the idea was great, and the phones on policy is freaking genius. You were all breathtaking!!!!

  Eric Davis
• Everything!

  Annelise W
• Truly an outstanding show. The live instruments were marvelous and the energy of the music was totally unique! The acting was very compelling and full of emotion, the dance choreography was electrifying, the fight choreography was hair-raising. Each scene was so well balanced between comedy and tragedy that I left the show feeling like I'd taken a good journey myself. Everyone I saw in the audience looked to be having a great time. It was clear that so much love and care was put into the show.

  Nate Worlton
• The music was awesome and so was all the talent! We also loved the the whole rock opera atmosphere.

• I loved all of it! I have a friend who told me about it (Madi) and then Calvin is another one of my friends. I also met about 3 new friends in the play. Everybody did fantastic!!!

  Katie P.
• Loved the music, the religious struggle, the Norse reconnecting with what drives them

  William Boardman
• It was very entertaining and different from what I've been to before

  H.G.
• I enjoyed the energy of the show. The writing was enjoyable. There aren't as many stories using Norse mythology so it was fun to explore that with the characters. The music was catchy and the acting was fun!

  Elizabeth Adams
• The addition of the live instruments was AWESOME this year. This year was absolutely the best yet. Lots of energy and polish! The set this year was fantastic as well.

  P. Jones
• I loved the lively, entertaining music. Mary and Astrid had particularly incredible voices. I appreciate humor that is written in to contrast many serious moments. Wonderful sets and costuming really added to the atmosphere. Great sword battles! I really appreciated Astrid's enthusiasm within her role. Keep up the good work! I will be back every year.

  April D. J.
• It had some rockin music!

  Amanda Featherstone
• I loved this show! A friend brought me on a Monday and I knew my husband had to see it, so we came back for the closing night. When I saw the YouTube video of the performance, I showed to to my kids, and we've now watched it half a dozen times, and have been listening to the soundtrack pretty much nonstop. I loved the characters and the music, and hope to be able to bring my kids to the show someday.

  Maerhwyn A
• I loved this production in 2019 and had a such a great time that when I saw the second production in 2021 I was amazed that it could get better. There were so many memorable pieces, the acting and singing were transforming, and all the pieces of set-costume-makeup were great. The choice to post the lyric was fantastic. The ending felt so ethereal, kind, and uplifting, which is amazing considering the initial promise of "blood and gore" from either Thor or Odin at the beginning of the show. Haha! Beautiful work. I was hard-pressed to take every detailed moment in. It shows the level of talent and commitment from this production team and I will be in line for the next show.

  Rose L.
• My wife and I quite enjoyed this show. The music was awesome and the instrumentation very catchy and consistent; we didn't feel like any track got left in the dust, though we did have a couple favorites. The story was impressive and also something we didn't anticipate to love as much as we did. I told my wife I'm definitely going to try out for this show at some point.

  Michael L.
• That it was fun. It didn't take itself so seriously and enjoyed a raucous audience.

  Randi G.
• Fun songs, dances, and great energy from the cast.
