Keep 'em coming!!!

Good of Craig to pose with ZT. She was never one of his greatest fans, but Craig's talent was always going to shine above any of her comments.

I think we should officially adopt them into 'The Craig Chalmers Appreciation Thread Dictionary'

Wonder what others should be considered?

Welcome to all new posters and well done to all who have achieved milestones.

Take care and will post again later. Right, off to get ironing board out”

Hi Stuain,

I do hope you are feeling much better now. Sorry to hear that you have been feeling poorly. Hopefully news and photos on the thread are aiding your recovery a little.

Dreamcoat

Regent, Ipswich,

All week until Saturday, March 15>

TWENTY years ago a respected critic is said to have written the following.

“I could watch this show a hundred times and then come back for more. It sweeps away all of the dreary sham that nowadays passes for theatre. It has everything, wonderful music and lyrics, splendid direction and choreography, characters and clowns and one of the best story lines ever written. But above all it has honesty.”

There are no better words that I can find for the production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, which opened at the Regent last night.

Less than a year ago its stars, narrator, Keith Jack, and Joseph, Craig Chalmers, were desperate for their big break in showbusiness.

Through the BBC1 show Any Dream Will Do they had a chance to showcase their talents and after making the final before losing out to Lee Mead, they have been given their chance.

Now touring with this latest production of 'Joseph' the pair take the main roles, which set the tone a wonderful evening.

What a performance they and their fellow cast members give. Full of vitality and fizz, the unforgettable numbers which weave the storyline together were delivered in a way that held the packed audience spellbound.

It is a gift to have the sort of talent which can bring so many smiles to people's faces.

However, this production is not just about the two best-known members of the cast. Every one of the company put their heart and soul into it and the audience were rewarded with an evening which will live long in the memory.

Liberally sprinkled with humour and a wide range of musical styles, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, crackles along at a breakneck pace.

The energy and subtlety of the performances is truly breathtaking.

The biggest recommendation I can give is that for one who can take or leave musicals, I would be happy to see this production again.

Those who are filling the Regent during the course of this week are the lucky ones though.

Unlike the audience which gave the company a standing ovation last night, they are yet to sample the panache with which this feel-good iconic musical is portrayed by its exuberant cast.

All in all, a dream of a production.”

Great review Kirsty,

Thanks for posting,

Love Siouxsie xxx

Hi Stashy,

I love this photo. Thank you so much for posting again. I've cut the picture out of the magazine and kept it safe as it was too lovely to throw away. They all look fab in their suits here. Have to agree with Pat regarding Craig in a suit. Another favourite outfit is Week one of ADWD, thought Craig looked fantastic in his suit and particularly loved his hairstyle that week too - Very dreamy!!!

All this trouble will come and go like everything else I suppose. And my mobile is bust. What is going on.

Oh well, thank goodness I have some interesting theatre visits to look forward to.
Row A - thanks to Charmed, by the way that's a great name.
Thanks too for all the kind messages.
I'll have to do my best with another review seen as you all expect it these days.
Have a good day. Will get back on as soon as I can.

Hi JJ,

You poor thing, you have had a horrible time haven't you. Do hope things are improving a little for you. Thank goodness you have your theatre outings to distract you.

Take care,
