Shout - Lyric Theatre - Star City
Well another Wednesday night preview and the chance to see young Anthony Callea's husband Tim Campbell in action.
Well, all I can say is disaster! Mark Holden, John Paul Young and a few other has beens head up this lame RSL style jukebox musical.
Tim Campbell is a lovely guy making him no bad boy Johnny O Keffe. Unfortunately this musical misses in all aspects.
Drab ballad after ballad (it's advertised as a rock n roll affair), short first half and way too long second half, bizarre first act finishing sequence and basically overall it just sucked.
I really like Tim Campbell and wish him all the best after his H&A days are over but he has to choose better roles and better musicals that even before it opens it appears it may be closing early.
Shout rates half a star.

Wow Randy, thats pretty scathing review, I'm going to see it in a few weeks and hope your off the mark, but respect that its you view. I just read three Sydney media reviews from the Sunday daily's and they gave it a definate thumbs up, SMH 8/10.
Maybe not you era of music? could be a problem.
