Having an opinion

I haven't seen Site Unseen, but Cameron Woodhead's review for The Age is leaving me tempted.

He didn't like it.

He's not alone. I've heard similar opinions about this show, but the difference is that they were whispered.

Cameron loves theatre, he sees more than I do and he writes reviews that I read. I don't give a toss if we agree or not.

I can't comment on the show, but I like this review.  I'd rather read a passionate and honest opinion than a compromise written to please everyone.

He's also written a follow up on his blog.

Here's John Bailey's review.

And here are some other opinions from people who have seen it and loved it.

And the response from the creators in The Age.

And this is what I thought when I saw it.
