your work on the Opening and Closing Ceremonies of the
Athens 2004 Olympic Games.
The innovative and efficient manner in which the crew
worked is a credit to all.
The unilateral passion to deliver the systems is a credit
to all, and should stand as an example of how such teams
can come together and work successfully on a huge project!"

"Following a very successful summer period, I feel it is now an appropriate time to write and express my sincere thanks to you and the team for your tremendous support this year.
The Crew Chiefs and site teams have been a huge credit to you, almost without exception, arriving on time with the necessary PPE and a keenness to get the job done. I will resist the mentioning of any names, as I would not like to offend anyone I may omit. They have all been excellent and having worked on site with a number of the lads personally over the summer months, I can say that with first hand experience."
From Terry Smith, Operations Director, Arena Seating.
"Your crew were great during this hectic world travel period. Very good set of guys, all worked really hard and achieved all the tasks we set them, it was as though we were one big team, all pulled their weight, I believe that we would not have pulled the show off without them. They did you and Showforce proud."
Adrian Skelton, Rigging Manager, Melville Rigging Services.
"I just wanted to send a huge note of THANKS to you, Mic and all the boys who worked over the weekend. The event went incredibly well and the client is over the moon with how it all turned out. This would not have been possible without the planning before hand and your boys being on the ground helping us on the day! The comments from the entire Limelight team were that ‘the Showforce boys were great’. They really do always just join forces with us to get the job done and it is always greatly appreciated! I would be really grateful if you could pass this note on to each of them with a HUGE thank you from all of us at Limelight."

"Thank you for your support on the RSA event at ExCel. Your team was great; Hard working from beginning to end. A special mention must be made for Gary Hodgson. Always a pleasure to work with and a real asset in production and throughout the show."
Dave Green, Production Manager, Silent Associates.
"Thank you so much for all your help with the Simplicity Event this year. I think we can all feel proud of being part of such a smooth running event, especially when you consider the ridiculous amount of time we had to build and de-rig. Please also pass on my thanks to the team – they didn’t miss a beat."
Phil Watton, Managing Director, Lodestar.
"Hi guys, wanted to drop you a line to say an extra special 'Thank You' to your crew for all their hard work over the past few months, working at Wembley has been quite a challenge to say the least, your guys took it on and went for it, taking no prisoners along the way! They have all been fantastic but the crew chief Mic is superb, what a legend!"
Andrea Sheen, Production Manager.
"I would like to thank your firm for sending me two fantastic hands during load-in and load-out at the Plasa show in Earls Court. In fifteen years of international touring experience I have never met two hands who where so committed to their jobs as these two, it took them a split second to understand what had to be done, and they did their jobs with speed, precision and fun! If all the stage hands where of this quality level, we wouldn't need techs anymore!"
