What our guests are saying:

The Impossible Dream was a very special experience that I will remember for a very long time. Superb and enchanting on every level. Thank you Paronella Park and all involved. - Sue Wicks

What a wonderful enchanting evening, certainly a MUST DO if anyone is visiting Cairns. It is hilarious, romantic and performed by highly skilled actors who can really sing the most wonderful original songs. I woke up this morning and could not get the final song out of my head... what a wonderful way to start the day! A real five-star experience from the time I entered the foyer. Certainly the best quality, beautifully directed play I have ever seen... and the food was also great. Well done - I will be back! - Janie Smith

Just a brief note to congratulate you and all the team on a thoroughly professional and enjoyably entertaining production. It really is a first class product that you have developed. - Cam Charlton

In one word - BRILLIANT Congratulations. - Brian Shaw

I had a fabulous time and enjoyed the whole concept. The play was great, the cast were superb, the set divine and the food was delicious. - Joan Crawford

We really did not know what to expect, but should have realised there is nothing impossible about your dreams! We were absolutely delighted with the entire evening, from the wonderful entertaining stage production, to the beautiful surrounds and attentive service of Shangrila. - Ray & Terry Scarborough

What a triumph! "The Impossible Dream" is stunning, and is a definite winner in both Suzie & my book.
You and the cast are to be commended on what is a truly a fantastic evening, from the moment that the narrator descends the stairs to beckon the audience, through the dazzling story & sumptuous meal, to the meet & greet over delicious sweets in the foyer with the Stars, it was all to say the least spectacular. The intimacy of the production seemed to touch each person present individually and took us all through a magical journey that is Jose & Margareta's story. The set design while Spartan at first impression transformed magically and seamlessly into the Spanish Dreamers Castle in the rainforest, and the lifting of the giant Disco ball into the ceiling of the ballroom accompanied by the themed music from your TV commercials made the hairs on my neck stand and brought a tear to Suzie's eye. I wish you every success with this venture & know that we will be telling everyone we can that "the Impossible Dream" is awesome and a must see. - Rob Cameron

Well done to all staff involved! Meals were delicious!, staff were fantastic and the show was very entertaining!! Thanks for an awesome night! - Fiona Moloney

WOW...this brilliant local production is well worth a look. Great food, great sets and bloody funny. Congratulations to Mark and Judy Evans for seeing that their dream became a reality. - Curtis Pitt

It was a great night and I totally enjoyed it. The play was great fun and our seats couldn't have been better for thoroughly enjoying ourselves. I quite liked the way we were led up the stairs from the drinks area by the narrator - it set the mood for the evening. - Harvie Demmitt

Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou for a wonderful evening of entertainment and such a fantastic showcase of talent.. it would be many , many years since I've had such an evening out and I just loved every minute. I felt as if the show was put on just for me so I guess in that respect, I must also say Thankyou to the director for getting this intimate feeling across. From the performances to the look of the set and then to the lighting and sound it was truly a wonderfully professional Production so "Well Done Everyone". I will be encouraging as many people as I can to also go and see and can't wait for friends and family to visit so we can come again. I think I could sit through the performance over and over, if only my finances would allow. Also, Many Thanks to the "Shangri La Hotel" and their staff.The venue is stunning and from the moment you arrive you just know you are in for a memorable evening. As I said the staff were brilliant and everything was done quietly and efficiently. I wanted to write this by hand but am too impatient to make you wait to judge the audience reaction. Having the mingling of the cast after the show just capped off the evening and all the cast were so accommodating with signing autographs. I have just fallen in love with your lovely "Simon Hapea. " Not only did his performance blow me away but his demeanour on talking to me also impressed. I do wish you all nothing but success in this venture and any others in the future. - Marie Greatrex

Thank you so much for an amazing night last night. I LOVED the show and the whole night was just fantastic. Cast was sensational, dinner was beautiful the setting was just perfect, and the room seemed to just the right size for it to be a good crowd yet still personal. - Vanessa Allen
