Is this the only show less-than-imaginative theatre groups can come up with? Surely there are other less performed pieces that you could be enticing theatre-goers with? Come on - set the scene...

I agree wholeheartedly that many musicals are done so often that they have the life flogged out of them. I would dearly love to see an audition notice for Falsettos or Sunday In The Park With George or Romance Romance or Closer Than Ever or even an oldie like Mack and Mabel.

It is, however, a sad fact of life that Perth (and Australian) audiences really DO want to see The Sound of Music again.

Cabaret may be one of those done to death shows but the reality is that it played to packed houses and helped Playlovers out financially in a very big way. Sometimes money really does make the world go 'round!

Cheers,
Gill
