Russell Crowe's Coffs Harbour 'Indoor Garden Party' a big hit ABC News 13 January 2014

The actor Russell Crowe's Indoor Garden Party at Coffs Harbour has been met with critical acclaim from those lucky enough to get tickets to it.

The sold-out show included performances by Mr Crowe, his Les Miserable co-star British actress and singer Samantha Barks, Canadian musician and actor Alan Doyle and the American actor Scott Grimes.

One of those at Friday's opening night and the Sunday night show was Coffs Harbour local Kym Terhedde who said the audience left the Jetty Theatre buzzing with excitement.

"It was a variety performance, there was poetry, there was some Irish Beatbox harmonious singers, piano playing, a guy sitting on a wooden box just banging on a drum," she said.

"They did speak about themselves, where they were from, and Russell (Crowe) made them perform in their local accents.

"I came out my heart was racing, it was just exciting."

Ms Terhedde said the shows she saw were warm and informal evenings, of music, song and poetry.

"The crowd loved it, there was a lot of interaction with the stage performance, it was very uplifting, it was quite an exciting show, very exhilarating," she said.

"Much of it was sitting watching and a lot of handclapping but at the end everyone had to get up and sing and dance for the two encore songs.

"People were buzzing when they walked out of the place."

Tonight is the final show in the run.
