Name: Richard Haddad
Comment: I have watched most of your shows. I think the series is especially valuable inasmuch as it is one of the few series that I know that feature modern dance. I would recommend more of dance.

Another matter. I think that I am one of a large number of people who loved "Crazy for You." I would very much like to see it again. Keep up the good work.



Name: Debra Holiday
Comment: I was in high school when I first saw " The Gospel at Colonus." I really wish you would re-air it as well as make it available of purchase. Nothing that good should be archived.



Name: Roy LaGrone
Comment: Please show "The Gospel at Colonus" again.



Name: Charles Williams
Comment: "The Gospel at Colonus" is one of the greatest shows/plays that I have ever seen. I saw it on PBS back in the mid-80s. I would definitely love to see it again.



Name: Kendall Jones
Comment: I just wanted to say that the GREAT PERFORMANCES series, in my opinion, are the best shows that PBS puts on, especially the Broadway and opera specials. It's the only place you can really go to find programs like this and I really enjoy them! Thank you for your continued excellence in bringing the arts to the home!



Name: Emily
Comment: I love everything you do related to Andrew Lloyd Webber! I was enthralled and enchanted by "Jesus Christ Superstar," "Cats," and "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" (the biography bit with Donny Osmond was amazing!). Please try to have more Webber shows and rebroadcasts of his work on PBS.



Name: Niki Doanes
Comment: When I was a teenager I saw the "The Gospel at Colonus" on PBS and it has stayed with me since. I only wish you would re-air it, I'd love for my daughter to see it.



Name: Crystal
Comment: I love your show! I have not been a viewer that long because I am only 12 years old, but my mom has been a viewer for a long time. My favorite show is "Kiss Me, Kate." For some reason I liked it the best. I hope your show is around for 30 more years!!!



Name: Nathan Lutzka
Comment: I am a great fan of GREAT PERFORMANCES and have enjoyed its program[s] on WTTW for many years. GREAT PERFORMANCES brings the worlds operatic greats straight to our living rooms for our enjoyment. My favorite performance is "The Merry Widow."



Name: Bobbi
Comment: Andrea Bocelli is the most fantastic singer. Please continue to have him on as often as possible. His voice touches your heart and is thrilling. He is my number one choice. However, you present so many wonderful programs I could not begin to list them. My favorites include "Les Misérables in Concert," Michael Ball, operas, almost any musical endeavor! Congratulations on 30 great years, best wishes for many more. Thank you for providing great entertainment and education.



Name: Nadia
Comment: I really appreciate this series, which is not only entertaining but extremely educational. As a dancer, I particularly enjoy your dance programs, such as "Le Corsaire" and "Dance in America: Born to Be Wild." Your extensive and wide variety of programs give me more reason to embrace the ever-growing realm of the arts, and I continue to be fascinated as I learn more about the subjects of your programs. I'm looking forward to seeing your taping of San Francisco Ballet's "Othello" soon! Thanks for all these years of topnotch entertainment and education, and may there be many more to come!

Thanks so much to WNET and the GREAT PERFORMANCES crew for providing me (and the world) with this treasure.



Name: Holly
Comment: My favorite GREAT PERFORMANCES program is "My Favorite Broadway: The Leading Ladies." Never has there been one program that embraces every side of every woman, every emotion, every whim, and every desire.

Thanks so much to WNET and the GREAT PERFORMANCES crew for providing me (and the world) with this treasure.



Name: Albert Sanchez Moreno
Comment: I have enjoyed your broadcasts of plays, operas, and ballets. Most especially your 1993 broadcast of "Porgy and Bess"; your broadcasts of filmed operas, such as "Pagliacci" (both the one with Plácido Domingo and the one with Jon Vickers), "Tosca" on location in Rome, and "Hansel and Gretel"; the recent broadcast of "Kiss Me, Kate"; and the 1991 broadcast of "The House of Bernarda Alba."
