Great fun filled show
Larry_G, Mar 2023
Our last activity on Norfolk Island was the Commandant's Dinner and show and we certainly saved the best for last. We had no idea how incredibly funny the 3 Commandants and the hostess would be. The humour was adult but not over the top and the timing between the three men and hostess was perfect bouncing off each other. It was good to see that they are passionate and still enjoy performing and we still learned a lot about the history too. The only negative was that our main course was cold as we were the 7th of 8th tables to be served by lining up outside. A must see for anyone visiting Norfolk Island.

Thank you for your feedback on our Commandants Dinner. We are glad you enjoyed the evening and will however contact our caterer to ensure our meals are up to standard.
Food was good. It was...

Food was good. It was very clever how they reinacted the three commanders which not only made you laugh but learnt history. Carol

Hi Carol, Thank you for taking the time to review the Commandants' dinner. It is a favourite of ours in the office too. It's a great history lesson delivered in a fun and wonderful way.
Embarrassing
Judy_K, Apr 2022
The history was interesting and well presented by the actors. However the meal was very average and the script was weak and cringe-worthy with lots of bad puns and toilet jokes.
Response from Host, Apr 2022
Thanks Judy_K for taking the time to review. Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the whole experience. We will pass on your comment to the hotel chef regarding the food.
Good fun

The banter between commandants left me giggling. Great fun and food was lovely. You could see everyone was having a good time.

Thanks John_P for taking the time to let us know you enjoyed the Commandants' dinner
Good entertainment but better, more spacious venue required for health and safety reasons
Gogomobile, Mar 2020
Good entertainment and well paced throughout the evening. A good way of incorporating a bit of history with light entertainment and frivolity. However as for the set up of tables, we were squeezed in in rows and when it came to using our cutlery, most people had to pull their elbows tightly into the bodies because you were bumping the guests on either side of you.
Also the venue had insufficient ceiling fans and unless you are from the tropics and are accustomed to the humidity, it certainly can cause health related issues especially to the older folk
Response from Host, Apr 2020
Hi Gogom, thank you for taking the time to review the Commandants Dinner venue. We will take that on board as I believe the night you attended was a very humid night and of course we don't have aircon on island. We will look at ways the venue can accommodate nights like those. Stay Safe.
