Another Moral Dilemma! ... You've Been Warne ...d!

S'truth!

Here I am, sitting at home, innocently practising being God (working on the new edition of the ITA Link), when the postman came knocking.

A large envelope appeared amongst the smaller windowed envelopes. Eagerly, I opened it. Fear spread across my dial, it was an invitation to "Shane Warne The Musical."

Of course, I'll go, BUT, to review or not to review? The Trolls will have a field day - "The bastard's been paid!" "He's one of them!" He got tickets for free!"

What to do? I know, I'll think about it during intermission for War of the Roses this evening and reach a conclusion down Margaret River way this weekend, after the Leeuwin concert.

And for those of you who like musicals, or even those who don't think it's cricket, the show's on from the 18th - 31st March at the Regal Theatre in Subi, but it is a little dearer than a night out at any of our wonderful community theatres.

I personally think we should all be boycotting this musical which glamourises infidelity and other things. I just wonder what message it sends to everyone. No matter how bad you fuck up, hurt people, your family, ruin your career, you can still get a musical written about it and reap the benefits. It's just not cricket. It's very "un-Australian" as some people may call it also. Don't review it! Don't see it! My 2 cents.
