I'm one of the fortunate few to have visited Cougar Annie's Garden and welcomed the chance to see this intriguing place saluted in song and story. The photos were great--but probably not to helpful to the blind woman in Sunday's audience. The singing and playing and attempts at a British accent were decidedly off key. But full marks for enthusiasm and for an obvious labour of love.
Totally agree. The story was heartfelt and her passion as performer really came through. I liked the singing, but thought it didn't mesh so well because it jarred me out of the story -- especially with the different (not particularly successful) accents then the very "Canadian" singer-songwriter voice. Still, quite worth supporting both because of the unique story and the wonderful effort of pulling together then many facts necessary to tell the tale. Incidentally, I could see it working better with Katrina sticking to the songs and another performer doing the acting.
