Reviews of Essendon Theatre Company
"Great play. A talented group of actors. Well done to the director and the backstage crew. There are still a couple of shows to go, so get your tickets if you enjoy Harry Potter, a good laugh, and some fine acting. Pictured is one of those fine actors, Bethany Simmons, after another great performance."

"HIGHLY recommend the play "Suite Surrender" - absolutely HILARIOUS! Kudos to the Director for the AMAZING cast. It was my first time at the Essendon Theatre Company and I found the staff friendly and inviting - you can bring your own food and they have tea and coffee (gold coin donation).
