Seems someone else is now getting a barrage of comments from wannabe starlets: http://www.thedramateacher.com/mary-poppins-to-come-to-australia/ (Hint: read the comments) It's sad that youngsters out there are so used to the internet now ('now'... man, I'm getting old...) that they can't spot the difference between a posted announcement/media release and an advert/casting call. Nor do they seem aware of the likehood of anyone actually caring whether or not they post on some random website; or think "hey, look 50 people who want to audition. I should get their info and have them come in!" ... Sigh... it looks like our work is never done.

As Noel Coward once said "Don't put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington...the profession is overcrowded, and the struggle's pretty tough, and admitting the fact she's learning to act, that isn't quite enough!"
