This should possibly go in the 'Theatre Reviews' section, but I can't actually bring myself to write a review about what I saw tonight. It was, in all probability, the single worst piece of theatre I've ever seen. The writing, characters, production, directing, and acting were all atrocious. I actually enjoyed myself immensely, but for all the wrong reasons. Also it helped a fair bit that I was fairly well inebriated.

I don't have the heart to mention any details. But it's certainly made me feel more tolerant to a lot of other shows with only half the talent.

What were you there, Leah?

Greg (Lord Byron) Ross dropped out (or climbed out) two weeks before the show, because he didn't (or couldn't) get his lines down and blamed the leading lady.
