Just back from seeing today's matinee. I had a fantastic time. Thank you Simon, for taking the time to sign your album for me, it was very much appreciated.

Well what can I say!! Saw La Cage on Tuesday 20th October and Oh What A Night. You were all just fabulous!! My daughter said it was the best Birthday present I've ever given her! I think I would agree with her there!! Thanks to you, John and ALL the cast. :) XXX XXX

Came to see La Cage on the 20th for my husband's birthday. Thought you and John and the rest of the cast were fantastic. Thanks for a great show.

How you manage to keep a straight face when Mr Barrowman is corpsing in the masculine toast scene I will never know, it gets funnier each time I see it. Loving La Cage, it has the total musical theatre package for me and having seen it just a few times already you never fail to impress. I have to admit I have fallen in love with this production of La Cage. You have a truly delightful voice so your Album is now on my Xmas list! Looking forward to seeing it again. Love & congratulations on a fantastic show, Gilly

hi simon, i just wanted to say a big thank you for your performance in La Cage. it won't be a show i'll forget easily, you were fantastic! :)x

I saw you in la cage on 19th and originally went as John Barrowman fan.Although he was amazing as usual i have to say im a huge Simon fan now too! Thanks for the outstanding performance, cant remember the last time i laughed so much! Got a fab pic of the both of us too...amazingx

Just had to say how much I'd enjoyed La Cage and especially your performance on Friday. Thank you.

Loved La Cage on 15th, thanks for signing CD. Looking forward to seeing you again on 29th.

I saw you in La Cage on the 10th October. You were spectacular. A fantastic singing voice and just such a pleasure to watch you perform.

Thanks for a great performance in La Cage, we loved your singing and portrayal of Georges.It was fantastic to meet you after the show

Thankyou for a wonderful performance on Tuesday evening. Your voice and acting were outstanding and with you and John singing this great score "Who could ask for anything more?" to borrow a line from another show!

I was so happy to find a signed copy of your cd in my mailbox when I came home from GB.
Of course, it's not as good as watching you on stage (no such thing as live theatre!), but these are beautiful songs, wonderfully sung. It will certainly make waiting for the 10th of november more bearable!

PS.....Simon you're hotter than John...LOL!

I must agree with Helene..I originally went to see La Cage for John Barrowman. Simon..you were fantastic! Definitely would go see you again! Keep up the good work!

Last week in London was fantastic : four shows of La Cage, and I still can't get enough...
I must confess that my previous trips were booked for John Barrowman, but next month's will be for you !

Simon:
I saw you two at La Cage on Oct th. I was astonished. You re amazing. Thanks for the best La Cage I saw never.
Juan
pd. Oops , your album is fantastic, I bougth it in Dress Circle, in West End, and the sailor said you are a fabulous singer. Me either.

Simon just want to say, Love your voice and thanks again for swinging my boa at La Cage last fri night. Your performances were amazing. Wish I could afford to see you again.

love Sharron

Celebrated my 65th birthday on 10 Oct at the matinee.What a fabulous show. Saw the original but this one blew me away you were both brilliant.

Saw u tonite in La Cage n drowned everytime u sang! Thanks for signing my programme after the show! X

Loved La Cage...you were fantastic. The CD is special too...a bargain price. Not that I'm complaining! Good luck with the rest of the shows & Thanks!!!

Hey Simon,
Just wanted to wish you a very happy birthday for the 8th! Chuffed to share this birthday with you ( & Matt Damon...)Hope you have a fabulous day. Kerry (ps Sydney is freezing at the moment!)

saw La Cage last thursday and loved it, and you! musical theatre is my passion, thankyou for continuing to fuel it!
looking forward to seeing it and you and John again!

Saw La Cage on Fri and before then, I didn't even know who you were but now I've even come to search you online as I thought you were absolutely brilliant. A fantastic show and I will definitely see it again while you are playing George. J

Hi Simon, saw La Cage Wed 16 Sept, thought you were wonderful, such a great voice. The show was ace and you were lovely at the stage door asking every one if they'd had a good time (which we did) Sue xxx

Saw you on Monday in 'La Cage..' w/ Mr Barrowman. What a WONDERFUL evening. I really don't know how you managed to only giggle once, I was in fits throughout. Am now busy convincing everyone I know to see the show. Fabulous fabulous fabulous. Bravo! much love to you (and all the boys/girls), Kitty xoxo

I meet you last night at your opening of La Cage a beautifull proformance,I was the one at the stage door who sang the playschool song with you. Thanks for that, you were the highlight of my holiday in the UK. Thanks Sharan

Hi Simon!!!

Hello :)
I Am So Excited To See You In La Cage Aux Folles!
John Barrowman Aswell!
My 16th Will Be Utterly Brilliant!
I Am On The Front Seats Of The Afternoon Performace On The 19th Of Sepember!
I Know Your First Performances Are Tonight.
So..Break A Leg!
& I Know I Will Not Be Disappointed

:) x

Met you in Ballarat - a long time ago!
I saw La Cage at about the same time when it was at The Palais with Craig Revel Horwood. Swing by The Petersham Hotel, Richmond, Surrey while you're in town. I'll buy you lunch!

Hi Simon.
You might not remember me. I came from Ireland to see SOM on Valentine's day last year. If you look down the bottom of this list you'll see the comment I sent you the next day. Well I just want to see it again in Cardiff. It has a lot more gags in than the one at the Palladium, and it was a lot more relaxed. I just wanted to tell you that, even though Michael Praed is a good actor, he's not half the Captain you were. you would always be my Captain, I just wish I could have saw the kiss you gave Connie, that was the only dissapointment about that night. I was sat in a seat that the view wasn't great for that particular scene.
Just thought you would like to know mine and my friend's oppinion of the new Captain. Hope I see you in the future. Who knows, we may be co-stars. I'm going into Musical Theatre next year, I can't wait. SOM would be my ideal show to be in, even in the corous. There are many good shows out there though that would be very exciting to be in.
Night,
Clare.

Hi Simon

love Ellie

From watching you on tv on Playschool as a child in the late 80s/early 90s; to sitting in the front row of a CHICAGO performance in Brisbane in 2000, your talent as a performer is incredible and I wish you all the luck in the world for all the ventures that come your way! x

Great news that you will be starring with John in La Cage. My all-time favourite show. I've already booked to see eight performances whilst John is starring in it. You and he will be fantastic together. A sensation!!

Playing opposite John Barrowman in La Cage! It will be fabulous. Congratulations!

Enjoyed the play very much.Nice to see you back in the U.K.Thank you for stopping to chat.

We love that despite all the success you take the time to share your lovely voice with the littlest people (and their Mums) through Play School. Thanks.

I went to see you 25 years ago in Romeo and Juliet in Adelaide at the Festival Theatre. What a pleasure it has been to watch your career soar. Now as a mother, I watch you on plat school with my 3 year old daughter. Congratulations on your success

HEY DAD!!!
I miss you soooooooo much! Thanks for being a cool rad pop. Tobes i miss you too, bros and hos for life.

playschool was as good as it gets man.

Hi Simon Great show last night.Hope you raised plenty of money. Good to see you back in london.

Hi Simon,
congrats to your great website. I am glad I got the chance to see some of your work, although most of the shows you are in are not screened in Germany (but with DVDs everything is possible :-)). I enjoyed your role in "The Alice" and have also seen you in "Young Lions", "Play School", "The Sullivans" and a couple of other projects. Keep up the good work. Would love to see you on stage if I had the chance!
Greetings from Germany,
Sylvia

U rock man, love your work!

Hey hey once again!! I saw you on TV in the Hustle and I thought it was soo cool. I was sitting at home and as soon as you came on I was like "Ahh!! Simon, it's Simon!! Look.... loooookkk!!" Haha, the Sound of Music finishes tomorrow but I finished back in November!! I can't go and see the last show.
From, Tobes

Hey Dad you came to the theatre last night and you didnt come and see me. I was playing Kurt!
Hope to see you soon.
Love Richard

Hi Simon, as a lover of all things Australian I caught the show at Carnegie Hall and wanted to say how brilliantly I thought you hosted the show (and sang!).

PS. our first amendment lets me say this -- GO OBAMA!

Simon, saw you last night at Carnegie Hall in "Australia Plays Broadway". The show was great, however, many of us were disappointed in your unnecessary put down of our former President, GW Bush. Always remember, this is a country that pretty much is 50/50, we have a sufficient number of Liberals here in Manhattan with a lack of political tact, without importing them from our favorite ally. I'm not a big fan of your present Prime Minister, but as an entertainer myself, it would never occur to me to backhand him and his supporters, as a guest of your country.

Hi Simon Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.Hope to see you back here soon.

i went to see the musical in 2007 and thought it was great. every sinse i have wanted to go back and see it. i think you are a great actor and i just loved your performance. but it is a shame that you are leaving, but good luck if you do any thing else!!!

yeah awesome 007 shot

Hey Dad
Guess who's going back for another run..... ME!!!!!!!
It won't be the same without you, even if my new Dad is called Simon!
I'm still Kurt as I havn't grown enough to be Fredrick.
It will be great to be one of the last London Kurts!
Hope you are doing well and have a good break when you get downunder to see your family.

Lots of love

Richard

alright nuh-uh i cant belive that youve left:(

Hey Simon,
I saw your last show and I started crying the first time you stepped onstage. I came with a load of kids from my stage school and all the little kids got in a mood with me, so I don't think I'll be coming to Australia very soon.
Lots of love,
And good luck in the futire,
Maria

i'll miss you loads from edd

Simon, I am so sad that you are going- I was really crying last night... so this is how I keep in touch with you. I thought you made a great captain and we will all miss you loads. Goodbye Simon, goodbye Simon why do you have to go? You're the best Aussie we'll ever know!
Love Tobes

Hi Dad

PS "Are you smarter than a 5th Grader? with Rove McMaaaaaaanus!!!!"

Hey Simon!
I can't believe your time at SoM has come to an end today! I felt so proud watching you in the show when I had the pleasure of seeing it - you are a shining star gorgeous! Always have been & always will be! Chookas for your final day & here's to your adventure ahead whatever that may hold! One thing's for sure I'll be supporting you 100%! Thanks again for the awesome time together whilst I was in London! The Judy G room will be lost without you!:)

Hi Simon,

I can't believe you're finishing soon. I'm going to try to get my Mum to bring me to see you before you finish. She doesn't know yet, but I'm working on it. I read your Really Useful interview and you are right, I will never ever forget my time at the Palladium and am very lucky to have had that opportunity. It does just make me want to do this even more though. All the very best to you and I'll keep in touch. Miss you. James (Kurt, just in case you've forgotten me already.)

hi simon!!
i saw the video of you on the helpmanns award ceremony thing because my best friend, Lydia's sister was eloise, the gretle you had on your lap. heard you're leaving sound of music soon which is a shame, but i love the shows i do see you in!!! hope you the very best.

You were amazing. Will definatly coming to see you again soon!!!

Nice to meet you.Thanks for the autograph.Will you be back in london again soon?

Hey Simon,
Finally got the chance to delve into your website & it's pretty cool.
It was terrific to see you in the show in June, and great to catch up afterwards.
Loved the show & your performance.
Saw you on the Helpmann Awards last week--a lovely surprise and a reminder of what these Awards have been missing!!
I'm sure you have mixed feeling about your time as Captain Von Trapp coming to an end - but (selfishly) I hope we see you back in Oz really soon!

Take care -
Kerry

Hi Simon,

I really enjoy The Sound of Music (19.7.08). Your style of acting is amazing. Thank you!

Hi Simon I saw you on Wednesday 30th April in the sound of music and you was grate. Nice talking to you after the show and Im sure I come to see you again..

Hello, Simon Burke

I had the pleasure of seeing you on a subway train in New York on Sunday, April 19 and could not resist speaking to you. I thoroughly enjoyed out chat (I apologize for being very excited about seeing you) and was happy to hear of your current success as Captain Von Trapp at the London Palladium. It was so easy to talk to a fellow Australian and I thank you for being so gracious, charming and friendly. Happy Anzac Day and if you're ever in Boston, Massachusetts, I have plenty of Anzac biscuits. I still have to speak to my sister-in-law who will be so jealous that I saw you! She is away, but she'll be getting a surprise soon!

I wish you continued success.

Kind regards
Mary Stormon-Flynn
