Cabaret @ The Deen
Wed, 7 Mar 2001, 01:30 amTonight I was at The Deen in Northbridge where Scarp staged Cabaret. Strange really as I don't go to musicals generally, but what was even stranger was that I was actually in the cast. But I have an excuse - Jamie Cant is the Director and I wanted to find out if what people say about him is true! Well, my opinion about Jamie is............ sorry, I'm just about to sneeze...... wait a minute..... Ahhhhhhh!..Ahhhhh! Ahhhtosssssaaaa!!!!! There, that's better,. Now, where was I? Oh yes, Jamie Cant. Now what was I going to say? I'm sure it will come back to me soon.
Anyway, Cabaret - go see it! Those all-singin' all-dancin' types are really very talented. I was in total awe of the performances. I won't single people out ,'coz the cast party is yet to come, and everyone (apart from the jerk with the fruit) is excellent.
And if you want even more value for the trivial amount of money you will pay to get in, after the show go and tell Jamie you thought the guy playing Schultz was very good - wait until he's got a drink to his mouth though (which will be difficult as he will also have to be not talking).
And for the sake of Meadows, Buttery et al, the perv factor is very high. God I love being backstage.
Ahhh! Now I remember. About Jamie Cant - what people say IS true!

The relationship between actor and director provides an opportunity for profound and insightful interaction, and for creativity to flourish in the most unexpected of ways. Just when a director thinks that he/she has worked with/experienced the full spectrum of actor psychology, an individual comes along that dispels all preconceived notions, and demands that they be reassessed...The extraordinary presence of Dean Shultz(e) as a member of my beautiful and talented cast has created such an occasion...Dean is a trooper. He's a gentleman. He's commited. He's witty and capable of amazing spontenaiety...Dean is never afraid to appear silly or juvenile if the occasion requires it...or infact even if it doesn't. He's there, assing about as if there is no tomorrow...Dean has made a craft of 'assing'. Seldom in my years working in community theatre have I seen such a consistent and dedicated approach to 'assing'. He may be rude, obnoxious, and he might even laugh at his own pithy jokes...but he is never predictable, or dull or apathetic. If your show needs an ass, and I suspect that many of you might do well to consider it, this devil is worthy of your consideration. In the company of such a vast and exquisite array of asses (Dean alluded to his delirium in the dressing room) Dean is well-placed to continue to hone his craft in CABARET at The Deen. Come and see it for yourself, and take the opportunity to tell him exactly what you think of him face to face. You'll find him near the bar.
Thanks Dean. Thanks for being you.
