Spectacular and very special… people are going to be talking about this non stop… I can hardly believe it.
Jo Whiley, BBC TV, UK
Absolutely brilliant, so powerful! Loved watching my 6 year old watching you: open mouthed, smiling, gasping and cheering!
Audience Feedback (A. Taylor),
Wow. Just WOW. Charmaine is such a charismatic performer. This show was powerful, touching, and we were in tears. For my 6 year old granddaughter it was the fave of the festival. Thank you so much.

Timely, thoughtful, sensitive and entertaining.
Audience Feedback (Anne Parry - Instagram) , UK
Breathtaking!
Sydney Morning Herald, Sydney, Australia
Along with the strength and humour from her street shows, she has a light touch and a keen ear which allow her to explore her themes of strength, power and resilience in ways that go beyond the obvious and create really involving moments.
Mervyn Millar, Object Animation Director, War Horse , UK
An icon in the street arts sector!
Xtrax, UK
Spectacular one woman show – leaving a trail of torn books and bent metal bars behind her…
Profile Magazine, Australia
Compassionate, moving and funny. The way Charmaine weaves together the stories and circus is inventive and original - I think the show will absolutely push forward the art form.
Ockham’s Razor, Charlotte Mooney, UK
Stories that are touching, tragic and true, told through circus skill and humour… the subject matter is about ordinary people and told through extraordinary skill. 
It is empowering and encouraging to watch, as well just good old fashioned entertainment!
Complicite, Joyce Henderson , UK
An inspiration to women
Megan Asprey , audience member, Australia
Absolutely stunning – it is moving, funny, beautifully staged, and the audience response was absolutely incredible.
Henry Filloux-Bennett
Artistic Director, The Lawrence Batley Theatre , UK
Inspiring and uplifting... and elegant!
Tina Vollenhoven, audience member, Australia
A very accomplished and thought-provoking piece of theatre… the circus elements were seamlessly interwoven into the narrative. The subjects of empowerment and mental well-being felt very appropriate for our time.
Steve Cowton, Programmer / Head of Production, The Lowry, UK
Receiving mentoring with Charmaine has made me feel both very prepared and inspired about the world of outdoor performance. We're getting through an incredible amount of information in each session, it's highly organised. I am learning loads from her expertise and feel well positioned for taking the next step in my career. Charmaine is very supportive and a fantastic listener, as a result the focus of each session has felt very tailored to my needs. It's been brilliant for me as an early career artist to be able to learn all of the practicalities of self-producing as well as get inspired about the values of being an artist working outdoors.
Mentoring Feedback: Fiona Salisbury , UK
Betty Brawn oozes charm & wit. She holds the audience in her hand while twirling men above her head.
Glimpse of London Magazine, UK
Flipping traditional gender ideas on their head, it is a strength act with a difference... Jaw Dropping...
Jenny D'Anger, Fremantle Herald, Australia
Stunning feats of emotional and physical strength, intertwined with raw verbatim of real people's stories. Thank you - you are a wonder!
Audience feedback (Becka_acts - Instagram), UK
Betty Brawn shows with indescribable lightness, that she is the Strongest Lady in the World – and elegant too.

Die grossen hit vom Klienes Fest! Betty Brawn zeigt mit unbeschreiblicher Leichtigkeit, das sie die starkste Frau der Welt ist – und elegant zu gleich.
Hannover Neue Presse Newspaper, Germany
That is actually, seriously, very impressive…
Merrick & Rosso, Nova Radio, Australia
Beautifully written and amazingly executed. We were mesmerised by the skill and captivated by the stories - such a great show!
Audience Feedback (R. Miles), UK
Charmaine is an expertly skilled creative practitioner. Her experience in outdoor performance was incredibly complimentary to delivering high quality community outreach. I observed on many occasions how quickly she is able to build rapport with someone she has just met and encourage them to identify and share a positive personal story.
Havering Changing, James Jackson, CPP Project Director., UK
Moving, funny and uplifting. Charmaine Childs is a natural storyteller and the combination of personal experience, collected memories and acts of physical strength kept the audience transfixed.
Angela Sykes, 
Program Manager at Diss Corn Hall, UK
How good was she! I have never seen a stronger woman…
The Footy Show, Australia

Catch POWER on a mini tour: 

Friday 9 Sept @carriageworkstheatre in Leeds 

Friday 16 Sept @settlevichall in North Yorkshire 

Saturday 17 Sept @skiptontownhall in North Yorkshire 

It’s coming together wonderfully for its first run since the end of May. Rehearsals running in the midst of an outdoor arts summer tour are a bit exhausting… but totally worth it.
