Good Morning, Travis,
I have been intrigued
by Grumpuss ever since you first told us about it last summer. When
the video finally arrived, I ran (not walked) to the VCR.
The stage was beautiful
(very impressive). The Queen of the Sidh and the
Waifs were simply charming,
but when you, Travis Edward Pike, climbed
out from under the rock,
and the story of Grumpuss began, I was
spellbound! I found
myself laughing and wondering what would happen
next. You changed
your voice from character to character so well. It
was awesome, like being
there, at the actual performance and in the
presence of a truly great
storyteller. Swept up in all the emotions of
the story, you led me
on and on from the Armory to the Gorge to Sir
Ellery’s first encounter
with Grumpuss and straight on to the end. And
what an ending it is!
I loved everything about this wonderful story. I
loved it so much that
I watched it four times in a row (or was it six?)
Anyone who loves theater,
folk tales, children and animals, is sure to
love Grumpuss.
Every home, school and library should own at least one
copy of the video.
As a matter of fact, my husband, Vince, and I are so
impressed that we have
ordered copies to give to our local schools and
libraries!
Your Friends Always,
Vince & Angie Schonarth
