Beauty and the Beast down at Mandurah...this is my review B - for the absolutely Breath-taking sets and lighting E - for the Excellent theatre A - Amazing singing especially from Belle played by Miss Cassandra Kotchie U - the Utterly great characterisation from the Mrs Potts, Lumiere and Cogsworth T - the Terrific choreography and execution especially in the tavern scene by the men Y - the Yummy biscuits that were complimentary with coffee and the B - for the BEST 'amateur' - though professional in performance show to maybe ever hit a WA stage?? E - the Energetic and enthusiastic chorus and ensemble A - for the Awesome job that Susan Vincent did with solo 'Beauty and the Beast' S - the Sensational acting from lead to support to chorus T - a Tragedy that i only saw it on the last day and do not have the privilege of seeing it again I have nothing but praise. Well done!

Chorey often gets a beating

Chorey often gets a beating in community/amature theatre and I think it's a little unfair.... Often it's the poor execution from non-dancers who find even the simplest of steps a challenge and when they do eventually get the choreography, they don't have the technique and style to move with the conviction and natural-ease a trained dancer would. For the record - I was "Walter Plingey" who asked who chorey the show and the only reason I didn't use my name was because I can't login on all my computers... Something to do with cookies? I didn't even see the show. But as a dancer/choreographer I'm always interested to see who's working around Perth/WA. The end. It's a crowd favourite. Everybody loves a good jazz square.
