Hi,


Has anyone seen the King and I in Perth? Any thoughts or reviews??
I'm thinking of seeing it this week.

To the MS Society,

I am but a humble patron and my opinion would have absolutely no value to your committee. I have a background in amateur theatre and have been backstage and on stage on many occasions so I understand the commitment and dedication needed to ensure that an audience has been satisfied.

I can assure you the audience were well satisfied on Wednesday evening 20th October. I do not understand how you can sack a group of people who gave their all to represent you and did it with class. Have you another agenda? I have always assumed that the purpose of a show was to entertain and I am in no doubt that the audience were well entertained. All of the principals and cast gave wonderful performances and I am bewildered as to why the "Society" can be so cruel and totally blinkered in their decision to sack a talented body of people. You have not thought this through the ramifications will be with you for a long time I am disgusted!!!
