I was just wondering if anyone saw Rock Apocalypse in Padbury which has just finished I think. I really wanted to go and see it but couldn't make it and wanted to know what it was like! Can someone put a review up of it? Thanks! Am

Hey everybody, Thought I would weigh in here as well and put my 2 cents in. As somebody who was in the show I know that I might have a slightly biased opinion but will try and be as objective as possible. My thoughts on Tims job was that he went well above and beyond, yes things faltered a bit when he had to take over as Ricky but nobody else would have been able to learn the lines for that role with so little time left to spare. My personal opinion and people can argue coz I came in at a late stage. Is that there were too many cheifs and not enough indians. If the director says jump you say how high, don't argue about it. The band and especially musical director were an absolute credit. Again above and beyond. My personal feeling is that it is amateur theatre and I will say that I have only been in 2 other productions previously. It was a fun reintroduction for me. We tried our hardest for the audience. I wholly appreciate StuartP honest and constructive feedback. People like me want to learn where they went wrong for next time. Not just hear how crap we were. We can't improve just from being told we weren't good and that is why I appreciate StuartP comments so much tell us what we are doing wrong so we can learn.
