Sun, 14 May 2006, 10:22 amHow do you ruin a classic well known musical? Give the rights to The Occracy!
OK.
Well, as you were warned before, Aaron & David are BACK with a new musical...OLIVER! Yes. There was nudity (well, almost)
Yes. These was a mentally deficiant person in it (acting as one). Yes, it was shite! There were 3 things that were good in the show
1) Kate Walsh as Nancy
2) Interval
3) THE END
Seriously don't waste your money...I'd would of rather poked my eyes with the knife the little kid was playing with on stage that see that crap again!
The other good thing was dodger in the bath....he was young (17-18) but it took away from the appauling piece of theatre I was witnessing!!!!
Anyone else have any thoughts???

Sun, 21 May 2006, 11:55 amI wasn't refering to casting women in male roles or even putting possibly inapproriate bath scenes into shows as breaching copyright. These are artistic decisions even if they may be weird. Changing dialogue extensively so that it changes the meaning or alters the stance of the piece should be a breach of copyright even if it isn't and I think it is. I agree I possibly went off half cocked but as a writer myself I tend to react rather negatively when I hear this stuff. Sorry
