This would have to be the states first "MUST SEE" event for 2007.

Darlington Theatre Players current production is a credit to community theatre in Perth. The energy with which this production is performed would solve the global warming problem almost on it's own!

Director Peter Clark has taken his personal dream to mount this show and (with the help of several VERY talented cast members, an excellent live band and some of the best lighting seen in Perth for quite some time) not just made it into a reality, but has handed Perth audiences some of the best that theatre goers have ever enjoyed.

If I was in the business of handing out stars for reviews, this would certainly be four and a half out of five.

Terrific show, wonderful cast, DAMN good band, intuitive directing. Great job Guys! Loved it! 

I could not have put this

I could not have put this better. There seems to be way too many people here who just want to critisize what other people do. Funny as I dont see them up there on stage taking part? Perhaps they just dont have what it takes to cut it in the live theatre scene and will always remain armchair critics. As someone who was involved with this production at Marloo all I can say is that the people in the cast have all worked extremely hard and long to put this show on, which based on what I have heard from people who have actually SEEN the show is awesome. My own opinion is the same. I took my wife and kids up to see the show and they were very very impressed given the fact that it is "amateur" theatre, their expectations were a little low, but after seeing the show those opinions changed very much. Well done all and dont bother taking any notice of the people who really dont have a clue and who obviously do not have to talent or the guts to do it themselves anyway. Keep up the great work.
