Hanna -
I wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you how much I enjoyed the performance on Sunday!
Thank you for the opportunity to attend.
I love what you are doing with Ambassador Theatre in retaining and presenting the cultural background that is so important to keep alive and to share!!

Friends,
I would like to thank you all for the truly amazing day yesterday. I am humbled and I can’t find the best words to describe my feelings of gratitute to you and how much I appreciate your talents, dedication and hard work you put into Hopa Tropa Kukerica. With a deep reverance and a great respect I will say “You were magnificent!”
I promised Lili that we will take the audience’s breath away and I think that we have not only taken the audiences breaths and minds away, but also we have accomplished to bring the house down. I heard only the best things that could be said about our show, the concept, the execution, the creativity, the color, the acting, the music, the singing, the dancing, and all of your energy. You all were an extraordinary team, that I had the honor of working with. BRAVO!
First, I would like to thank our Directors, Lili Slavova and Hanna Bondarewska for the opportunity to do what we did yesterday. Without them we could not have even started thinking about this project.
I hope we will have the chance to do this many times in the future.
Second, I would like to thank the entire cast of actors. Since I don’t have all their e-mails I would ask Dariya to forward this mail to all. You guys were absolutely amazing and my mind has expanded to fit yet another extraordinary art form. I learned about the art of puppeteering and how complicated it is. I learned that the best actors are puppeteers, which is a unique skill that not everybody can master. Congratulations on such great acting to the entire actors’ cast!
The Na Megdana was a real celebration on the village square. I’d like to use the term a colleague of mine used to describe this part of the show. VERY ORGANIC, EXTREMELY COLORFUL, AND FULL OF ENERGY AND LIFE!
For this part I would like to congratulate the entire cast of 47 people, including our friends from Orfeia, Svitania, Zunitza and all the troops from Zharava, along with the Bulgarian School children and our guest artists Varol and Tanya.
I would like to thank you all and especially Tanya Sarbinska and her team, leaders and the members of Svitania, my point of contacts in both groups, Diane and Petia, my dear friends and soul family Mila, Trayana and Slavi from Zunitza, and every single dancer and singer on stage. I don’t have the words to describe my gratitude to all of you and especially to my little friends from the Bulgarian School, who were thrilled to participate in this big production and all my friends from Zharava, some of whom have not been on stage and yesterday looked as if they have been born on stage, I can only say THANK YOU ALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! I could not have done it without you all.
And last, but not least, I would like to thank Petko Kolev for his musical arangements and sound support. Without our sound we would not have made it. …..as we all saw when yesterday was ufolding. Thank you Petko for saving the day.
For those of you that did not know who was behind the delicious food in the dining room, I would like to acknowledge the entire team from the Bulgarian community and will ask Diana and Gina to send this mail to all members of the volunteer team that helped this event to turn into a grand success. THANK YOU GUYS, YOU WERE AWESOME.
I hope some day we will be able to do this show again and to collaborate on many shows in the future.
I hope Svitania and Zunitza had safe trips home and hope all of you have recovered at least a bit and started the week with a fresh energy.
Enjoy the spring and don’t be strangers. More celebrations are coming. Keep in touch!
Best regards
Desi Jordanoff
Congratulations! This was truly a fantastic performance. Thanks for the roll coaster of emotions and an impressive display of talent. I wish Director Hanna Bondarewska and all the cast members an unceasing array of creative achievements with this production and all the other ones, they all might be part of in the future. All the best!
Dear Hanna,
Congratulations on your superb production of The Madman and and the Nun! Anyone looking for intense, serious, challenging theater should see this play, especially as presented by this company. Your actors captured the spirit of Witkacy’s off-center world view with complete ease. Their bold, but knowing and matter-of-fact presentation projected both the horror and the humor of Witkacy’s play. Well done! It was good of all of you to take the time afterward to talk with us for a while, too. I look forward to seeing more of Ambassador Theater!
Thank you very much for a truly enjoyable evening watching your production of the Madman and the Nun. What a fun time! I really enjoyed the sizzle and the energy between John and Jenny as the co-leads. I also very much enjoyed the contrast between the two doctors and the interplay between the two nuns – Jenny (again) and Mary. An entertaining evening, made only better by the Q&A afterwards with the cast and you. Congratulations on a wonderful performance – your cast, your crew and you should all be very proud of this wonderful production.
Dear Hanna,
Thanks for a wonderful evening! You took the audience on the rhythmically exhilarating and jolting ride that Witkacy intended MADMAN to be. It was exciting, funny, and sad, and seemed as weird and quirky as Walpurg’s brain. My congratulations!

Everything was magical – the set, the players and the audience! The heartfelt dialogue with the audience was true to the Ambassador Theater’s Director Hanna and the ATICC mission.
Hi, Hanna,
Thank you for all your effort, patience, creativity and vision. Judging from the atmosphere after the show, I think everyone had a great time and left the theatre, not angry, not resentful, not depressed but–happy! And if you can bring a evening’s happiness to people you are certainly doing your job correctly. More power to you and thanks again,

OVERHEARD: “This is pure comedy!” – YOUNG AUDIENCE MEMBER DURING A PERFORMANCE OF THE LITTLE PRINCE
You have done an amazing job teaching the Anne Beers students the dancing and singing that they performed. I wish you lots of good luck in your efforts with your new theater – a good concept in helping students understand other cultures.
