TESTIMONIALS

"It was a pleasure to work with Jo Casson and Ding Productions on the Adelaide Festival Centre’s Christmas Proms. Jo has brought a fantastic creative flair to Christmas Proms with her dancers who fitted in seamlessly and brought a dynamic and colourful aesthetic that boosted the whole event. Jo has a great connection with quality local artists and has the ability to pull the best team together for the job. In often difficult circumstances it is great to have Jo on the team as she can calmly pull together performance outcomes based on the brief and achieve great results. I would highly recommend Ding Productions for a wide variety of performance outcomes across, but not limited to dance, music and magic."
Ben Hambour - Programming Executive
Adelaide Festival Centre

“Over the past four years, the Adelaide Strikers have worked closely with Ding Productions to enhance the match day experience for our fans and entertain the sell-out crowds of over 40,000 people. Ding Productions involvements extends not only to match day activity but also developing a NYE post match music, dance and light show, the first of its kind at any cricket match in Australia. Through Jo’s creativity and innovation, this post-match performance has become just as important as the match itself and adds to the experience for those attending. Every year, she amazes us with her ability to reinterpret the brief and present new ideas. The Adelaide Strikers continue to be rated by fans as the best match day experience in the country and it is no doubt that Jo is an integral partner in achieving this success."
Bronwyn Klei
Adelaide Striker

"When it comes to providing entertainment for our events, we go to Jo at Ding because she always comes up with performances that have the ‘wow factor’. Having worked in marketing and events prior to starting Ding, Jo really understands what clients want and she delivers every time. “Lumiere" was particularly innovative and offered something no-one had seen before. The multimedia nature of the performance blew everyone away. Even our most savvy international delegates were gob-smacked. It was amazing!"
Mary White - General Manager
Adelaide Convention Bureau

"Kooyong Golf Club has booked Ding Productions over the last four years to provide entertainment for our members annual dinner and we have always been impressed with the outstanding quality of the artists and production. An added bonus is the ability of Jo Casson to not only provide a variety of established themed shows, but also the option to personalise a show. Recently Jo produced a show specifically for our committee and we received rave reviews from guests. We have also recommended Jo to our clients and I received the same excellent reviews."

"This is entertainment of high calibre. The powerful artistry of instrumentalists and singers goes to a higher level than most musical dinner fare. 'Queen Zeppelin' appeals to a wide audience and we had nothing but enthusiasm following our event."
Dr Rosemary Brooks - Principal
St Ann's College Inc.

“In producing a major fundraising event for the RFDS, we required a ‘showstopping opener'. The DING team worked with us as a partner in developing an outcome that simply took our guests breath away; an outstanding outcome for InFront and their client that is still being talked about long after the event. Ding also worked within a very specific brief to provide entertainment for the Royal Agricultural Society of SA's 150 years celebration and were successful in '...taking our concept and brief and enhancing it and letting it take flight...' embracing the spirit of the event and providing performances that will be remembered for a long, long time!"
Scott Ireland - Managing Director

"We had 'Queen Zeppelin' at our AMA(SA) Charity Gala Dinner, it was a huge hit with all age groups that attended. It definitely appealed to all as something different to the usual types of acts that our members have come to expect. I would definitely recommend."

"I worked with Jo Casson and Ding Productions for our inaugural national conference in May 2012 with entertainment at our social events over the 3 days. The service delivered was fantastic, from being involved from the early stages of planning and then all the way to the end, which made it so much easier for me. During the event everything went so smoothly without any issues with entertainment and our delegates were delighted with the talent. Jo and her team are simply a delight to work with and I plan to engage her services in the future. They are professional, fun, proficient and extremely talented."

"A very big THANK YOU - you did an amazing job - inspirational, uplifting and energetic."
Rose Senesi - Fundraising Manager, SA
The Leukaemia Foundation

"ILLURE is clever... and glory be the performers know how to connect and engage with an audience.  ...ranging from nifty card tricks to more technically difficult cage & box switcheroos – what is important here is not whether you have seen these tricks before, but rather the originality in context to which they are presented. This one is worth getting out for... it is highly entertaining and manifests enough variety to put it well outside the box in many ways."
Jonathon Carfax, Absinthe
Banks SA Talk Fringe review
