Rod Toovey
ESSENCE
of ELVIS
Let the testimonials speak for themselves...
"Friday 18th March 2011 at the Devonport Bowls and Croquet Club, What A Night! From the moment "ELVIS" came out on stage we were "caught in his trap". For the next three hours he wowed us with song after song from the "KING'S" repetoire. The rock & rollers rocked and rolled, the line dancers strutted their stuff. Everyone enjoyed themselves so much that when it came time for requests, Elvis had difficulty leaving the stage. The songs kept coming and it appeared that we might still be there enjoying the show in the morning. But all good things do come to an end, and to the strains of (MY WAY) dancers took to the floor for the last time. Our evening's entertainment was over, but what a night it had been. Thank's Rod Toovey. We all went away "Stuck On You!"
Keith McDonald, Devonport Bowls & Croquet Club

"Elvis would be proud
Recently I travelled to Braidwood to attend a concert featuring Rod Toovey as Elvis. I was astounded by the performance. The dress, the movement, the vocals and accompaniment were very professional and of exceptional quality. The performance was authentic and Rod's natural and quiet humour endeared him to the audience.
Come back soon Rod."
Reg Lang, Audience member, Braidwood

LETTER FROM DEAN CHAMBERS - OCEANIA MANAGER, OHAUS AUSTRALIA dated 8th Oct 2018
Dear Rod & Trish Toovey,
I write to you both personally to thank you both for what was a wonderful performance at our recent 2018 Gala Awards Evening held at the Launceston Country Club, Tasmania.
From my first initial contact and until our debrief at the close of the evening nothing was ever too much trouble in working in with our requirements in wanting to deliver a great show.
We are always wanting to offer our customers something unique and special every year – from Comedians, Magicians, Hypnotists and Sports Celebrity's but by far the best entertainer has been Rod "Elvis" Toovey, for that we thank you immensely guys.
Rod's performance still has our customers bestowing much praise and they say their aching feet from the constant dancing has finally subsided. To see our customers at the end of the evening screaming for more was a remarkable sight!
Again, I wish you both the very best for Christmas & for 2019, and from all your new friends at OHAUS Australia – thank you very much.
With Regards,
Dean Chambers
Oceania Manager
