Hopefully in time for the Mardi Gras festival

That would be perfect timing for them to visit us!!! They'd get so much attention.

Looks like it's now been cancelled....."due to unforeseen circumstances" whatever that may mean.

Have to say that I'm not too disappointed. I went up to Brisbane for the opening weekend of the musical last June, and I was planning to see it here in Sydney more out of loyalty than anything else.

CTH isn't one of the highest points in PSB career. The Brisbane cast did a great job, but the Mardi Gras program seems quite crowded this year, and I don't know if they would have gotten enough attention to make it worthwhile.

Maybe if Fundamental gets some airplay in Oz, they can bring it back next year and it will make more impact?
