“A highly intelligent, sophisticated and creative performer, she entrances audiences both young and old... To inspire young children with stories of mythical lands whilst escaping from heavy duty chains is a sight that audiences never tire of. Every festival should be booking Tianna The Traveller.”

“My daughter assisted you in your show. She is usually quiet, timid and reserved... but you managed to pull out a very loud voice and a very brave person! She was so proud of herself at the end of your show. [Now] When she gets sad and upset and un-confident, I remind her about Tianna and then often can take a deep breath and do something that’s scary for her.”
