"Those of us who gathered in the welcoming atmosphere of Lady Stairs House were treated to an outstanding performance by 'Robert Burns' himself (alias Christopher Tait). Dressed in period costume, he gave a short 'autobiography', illustrated with some of the poems - To a Mouse, To a Louse, and Tam O'Shanter; this last in particular was a triumph, bringing out the comic and dramatic elements of the narrative."
Maria Stewart, Visitor to The Writer's Museum

"Very many thanks for being such a star at our Burns Supper. Your 'Immortal Memory' was fantastic and it was amazing to watch the audience reaction when you were performing. You had everyone's complete attention - not an easy task with 345 people in the room, and many of them from foreign lands! You really were a star and it's good to know we had such an appreciative audience."
Pat Carmichael, Promotions and Events Manager, St Columba's Hospice
