Does anyone have any details about the production of Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat which will be at the Regal Theatre in June (Perth)?

I saw "Joseph" at the Regal. I think it is fantastic to see the director
(Bettine or Betty was it?) go out there and really make a fool out of herself! My God what a waste of time it was! If you are going to charge that much for tickets make sure that you have a professional cast or don't waste your time and money directing a half arsed production of what is a great musical. And what's with the W.A. College of Performing arts? I thought that it was the academy (wappa). How long have this lot been getting away with using this name? I'm sure that the Edith Cowan People would love to hear how this lot seems to be "using" a name that is synonomous with someone elses entity. I'm hoping that this is the first (And the last) we see of this "tinpot" company. They really sold the theatre goers a real "pup" when they staged this. I'm sure Andrew LLoyd Webber & Tim Rice will be eternally squirming when they realise that for the first time in history, Betty Crul (sorry I can't recall the conductors name) has successfully destroyed the undestroyable music of this fine pair. Never again!
