Oh What a Night - Perth
Fri, 27 Feb 2004, 05:08 pmA seventies musical, fantastic dancing and energetic performances from the chorus who were brilliant. Sadly the plot was thin, the main leads basically even poorer (with the exception of Kathy Sledge and whoever played Stretch Mulligan who both shone) and the sound at Burswood, especially if you were seated near the front, was appalling.
The auditorium was less than a third full, but the audience were as enthusiastic as they could be, after all we'd all paid to be there. Who or what Jack was supposed to be or why he was there still puzzles me.
I'll be most interested to see anyone else's opinion

Man, then your argument makes no sense!!! I thought Lorna was saying (correct me if i'm wrong, Lorna) you can be critical if you see the production and didn't like it, and it doesnt matter if your an actor or an audience or anytrhing else. You don't have to just 'admire it' like you say. If there's nothing admirable, then there's nothing admirable, and that's got nothing to do with being an actor who hasn't yet been in a big production like it. You can still have an opinion about it, and what you said to "those critical actors" makes it sound like you think they're just jealous. Well it sounds to me (i didn't see the show) like maybe some people are glad they weren't in the show, so how can they be jealous?
The ones who really like it are allowed to have their opinion (although it sounded like a lot of them were biased coz they had friends in the show) and so do the ones who didn't like it. So far I haven't been convinced to go and see it though.
