The Barefoot Hawaiian appreciates any and all
feedback from clients, patrons, guests, and
audience members regarding our show and
performance. Please determine the best and
most efficient way to provide your feedback from
the following categories:
Clients: Please provide your
feedback to us directly either by phone or by the
confidential email address that was used in our
communications when setting up your event.
Guests of Private Parties: If you
were a guest or customer of a private party (this
would be any event not listed in our Event
Schedule web page), then this event was run
entirely and exclusively by your host. The
best method of providing your feedback would be
directly to your host. They are in the best
position to collect and consolidate all feedback
and pass it on to us along with their comments so
we may respond or act on it most
efficiently. If the circumstance is one of
an unresolved issue between you and the event's
host, you must communicate the matter directly
with the host. The Barefoot Hawaiian does
not become involved in any internal matters of
private events and parties.
Customers of a Barefoot Hawaiian Event: If you attended an event that was run directly
by or sponsored all or in part by the Barefoot
Hawaiian, we would love to hear from you.
This would be any event from which you purchased a
ticket directly from or paid an admission or
entrance fee to the Barefoot Hawaiian. We
want to know where we did good and where we need to
improve. If the matter is one of significance
requiring immediate attention you may contact us
by phone at 847-699-7336 Extension #1; otherwise,
email your feedback to:
Audience Members of a Public Show or
Event: This applies if you were the customer, guest,
or audience member of an event that was open to
the public but not sponsored directly by the
Barefoot Hawaiian. (Note: all public events
are on our Event Schedule page.) For this, the best method
of providing your feedback would be directly to
the host, promoter, or sponsoring organization
that held the event. They are in the best
position to collect and consolidate all feedback
and pass it on to us along with their comments so
we may respond or act on it most efficiently.
If there is something exceptional that you want us
to know, we welcome such feedback via email
to: If the circumstance is one of an unresolved
issue between you and the event's sponsor, you must communicate the
matter directly with the host. The Barefoot
Hawaiian has no means to become involved in or
resolve issues between our client and customers of
that client. If, however, for public events
only, yours is one of exception that you think we
should at least know about, you may email your
feedback to us at: While we cannot become involved in resolving
any dispute, our reputation with our audience
members is our most prized and valuable
asset. An aggregate of feedback about a particular event, will help us determine
whether we wish to return to performing at that event
or not.
