One of the best shows I have seen. I went twice and would go a third. A terrific display of talentClaire W, Minesing
Simply superb!!! Clever use of multi-level stage perches; non-stop timely choreographed movement; instrumental excellence of the highest calibre; beautiful singing from base to the top of the scale!!! Very inventive to be able to create and present such a variety of genres in an all-encompassing show with an unusual collection of instruments being so capably played in a non-orchestral setting. One of the best-ever shows created and presented via the Drayton Theatre group. We are very fortunate to have such talent on display so close to home at King's Wharf.Earl B, Midland

I never cease to be amazed at the amazing talent of the Drayton entertainers. Fiddler on the Loose was a wonderful show that was very professional. The energy of these 9 performers had me worn out watching them and is second to none. All of them have many talents and use them so well. We have never been disappointed by any of the shows that we have seen this year or other times before now. Loved Buddy Holly Story as well.

You are to be congratulated on being such a wonderful and brilliant company.Pat C, Midland

What a streak. The Prom, Carol King, Buddy Holly and now Fiddler on the Loose. We were expecting to be entertained but we were blown away. What energy, talent, professionalism and skill. Another 5 star event. Jesse and teams rendition of Hallelujah is comparable to what I consider to be the gold standard - KD Langs. Thank you Drayton. Keep it up. We'll keep coming.Rick M, Alliston
Excellent show. Very impressed with the musical talent of each performer. The bonus was they had multiple talents! Incredible. Our plan is to see it again before the run is over.Cindy H, Tiny

I have been to a lot of live shows over the last 50 years and Fiddler on the Loose was by far one of the best! The talent, the enthusiasm, the diversity and the energy radiated by every one of the cast was phenomenal. I have already purchased tickets to see it again - this time taking my 92 year old mother. And the King's Wharf Theatre is a beautiful venue. Well done everyone! 10 STARSSandy E, Parry Sound

This is a wonderful showcase of talent! Amazingly entertaining, energetic from beginning to end with material that addresses every musical taste. I loved it because it connects the Canadian heritage of fiddling to all the genres of music. The show was beautifully crafted and presented. A must see!Hilary B, Tiny
I absolutely loved this performance for so many reasons: - incredible talent of each and every member of the team that participated in this performance, as this show was beyond my expectations and my experience attending theatrical performances over the years. - pace - everyone near me was glued to what was happening on stage and I believe this was happening in every row. - my husband and I have attended shows at the Mirvish theatre, Stratford Festival (Spamalot and King Lear this year) for decades, and this performance certainly was at the top of our list of performances we have attended. - I am having trouble finding all the superlatives to commend you for this amazing show (no one left early) and I look forward to having the pleasure of attending future shows created and performed by your team.Lorraine B, Bolton
Loved it!Melissa L, Honey Harbour
Loved the idea so I bought tickets and went last week with a friend. Loved it so much, bought tickets for yesterday with my hubby and loved it even more.

Excellent show, the talent in that show was amazing.Marjorie De W, Wasaga Beach
My cousins and I absolutely loved the show. The talent was fabulous, the music was superb and the comedy added great entertainment to the show. I'd see it again!Helene H, Kitchener

This was an amazing show highlighting the young people's various talents. We thoroughly enjoyed the show. Many thanks to Drayton for another fantastic experience!Lynda E H, Coldwater
I went to Fiddler on the Loose knowing I would enjoy the music, not so sure about my 14 year old granddaughter. Fiddler on the Loose was amazing! The talent outstanding! Entertaining from start to finish! In my granddaughter's words "That was hot!" Thank you so much for a wonderful day.Nancy G, Waubaushene

If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would! One of the BEST stage performances I have seen! Such talent - not only playing the fiddle with excellence and energy but singing with a beautiful blending of voices while playing the fiddle as well as a number of other instruments.

Absolutely fabulous and very entertaining. Such talented musicians!Heather B, Blue Mountains
Very gifted musicians and entertainers. Too much to take in, I'll have to see it a few times!Al H, Brockton
As a frequent theatre goer, never have I seen such talent in a show. It covered all genre of music and left me wanting more.

The music arrangements flowed seamlessly across a wide array of genres and eras and the touches of humour and personal interactions kept the audience involved. Bravo!Helen R, Barrie
This show was absolutely mesmerising! The level of talent showcased in this production was top notch. Jesse Grandmont had such high level energy and a charismatic personality.

Just great entertainment. Thank you.Roy S, Huntsville
Excellent performance, everything was fantastic; couldn't ask for better entertainment.Victor V, Tiny
A fantastic show. All the performers were very talented. Every number performed was great but it just kept getting better. Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah was so good I thought it was the last number but then The Devil Went Down to Georgia was performed as the last number. I was hoping it would be in the show and it was so well done it was a fitting last number. Thank you to all who made this show possible.Margaret T, Kitchener

Fantastic show. Great talent. A good feeling show. I've played drums and percussion for Drayton in the past and all your shows are top notch. Not quite sure what we were expecting and the five people in our group totally enjoyed the show. Such variety. The voices. The Irish dancing. The total involvement of singers / violinists and the band. Wonderful. Thank you.Lorne G, Midland
I recently had the pleasure of attending this show and it was one of the best! It was a captivating mix of different genres of popular music, ranging from country to rock and more.

My wife Janet and I have been members of Drayton Entertainment for 10 years now. We have enjoyed every single production and we attend at least 2 per summer. When we saw Fiddler on the Loose was coming to King's Wharf we had to take our daughter and her kiddos to see this. We all had a super time and the cast was amazing. Keep up the great work and we can hardly wait for next year. Nick and JanetNick T, Wasaga Beach

What a wonderful show!!! I wasn't sure what to expect but we were blown away by the talent of each and every musician. It was fun to watch and the music was top-notch. Something for everyone, even a little comedy thrown in here and there which added to the fun. Drayton Entertainment never ceases to impress! Thank you also for making it affordable.Kathy F, Cannington
Fabulous show!Gary P, Tiny
The show was great and the actors/musicians were extremely talented. The venue is wonderful. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was because the music was very loud and overwhelming for this small venue some of the time. It was painful, took away from the show and muddied the musician's performances.Lynn G, Oro-Medonte
Best show I have ever seen! Such a talented group of performers! Absolutely amazing!! Highly recommended! 5 star performance!Debbie R, Midland
Jesse's positive, infectious energy and love of the music he is performing, as well as the genuine emotion he feels when sharing these songs with his audience, make for a top-notch show! A stellar cast as well!Jeanette B, Cambridge
High energy well-choreographed show. Lots of jokes. Really enjoyable familiar music...loved it.Sue C, Penetanguishene
Great show. We both enjoyed a perfect evening. Thanks to the performersMichel G., Tiny
What a great evening of entertainment! Ran the gamut from country to jazz to rock to classical, a little bit of "Fiddler on the Roof", and some funny bits along the way. If you have not yet purchased tickets for this show, DO NOT WAIT! It is one of the best live musical shows I have seen in quite a while and with over two hours of entertainment, you are definitely getting your money's worth!Martin M, Midland
So much fun! Great group of very talented folks! Love the interaction!Patricia V, Tiny

An amazing show with such a tremendously talented cast - so well done - have been to a lot of theatre performances- one of the very best - I dont know what else to say!!!!Kim M K, Coldwater
Fiddler on the Loose is a fantastic production! The performers are absolutely amazing and talented beyond belief. You will not be able to sit still and be prepared to sing your hearts out! They had us laughing until we cried and at points, we were moved so much by the music it brought us to tears again. It is so obvious they love what they do, the smiles on their faces are infectious and it is a production I won't soon forget. This was one of the best shows I have been to!Paula J, TINY
Fabulous high energy show with multi-talented cast! Run to get tickets!Randy S, Barrie

We loved the show. Very multi talented musicians. Couldnt ask for a better performance.Barbara W, Oakville, ON
Personally I was experiencing a challenging day and almost did not attend. It was certainly the right decision to go and be enlightened by this amazing performance. The performance was superb. At first you wonder how they could continue to captivate you with violin/fiddle music but that is exactly what happens. The genuine energy with the variety of music is amazing. Thinking I have to view again.Catherine M, Midland
Totally an amazing show. Wonderful talent. Excellent venue.JoAnne c, Orillia

I am constantly amazed at the quality of the productions and performances at all of the Drayton Entertainment shows and venues I have attended. King's Wharf is closest to me so it's the one I attend the most.

Fiddler on the Loose is a fantastic musical experience with outstanding musicians. The range, variety and quality of the music is some of the best that I have heard live. The energetic action on stage, the humourous interaction with the musicians and the audience as well as the simplicity of set design and excellent lighting effects make the whole experience one that leaves your feet tapping and hands clapping!
