I found this promo footage of Eddie Perfect’s new musical – Shane Warne.
I have to say I was more likely to watch it prior to seeing this clip, then again I’ve never been to a musical before and this is gaining good reviews so I suppose it’s a good one to see, when it comes to a real city. Eddie Perfect comes across as a bit of a knob, perhaps it’s a theatre thing..
He should have that little chin-beard thing he had during the ’05 Ashes for added authenticity.

I saw this on the weekend – it’s pretty funny! It’s not quite as good as “Keating the Musical” and at $75 a ticket, its London-prices, but it is worth a look. Its pretty sympathetic to Simone and takes the p*ss out of Warne whilst honouring him, and Eddie Perfect does look like him quite a lot on stage. Probably not worth the trip to Melbourne on its own, but we combined it with the tennis, so it’s all good.
