It happens every now and then. And maybe due to this woman being a dancer she's super critical - a trained dancer watching me perform would spot I'm not exactly trained within seconds. Maybe she was expecting a full blown dance show. You never know. At least, as far as we know, she expressed her opinion in a public discussion forum and not very loudly and rudely towards the performers themselves, as some people have been known to do ...

I think everyone has the right to their opinion.....I don't however think it's particularly nice to say it out loud. My Gran always told me that if I didn't have anything nice to say then to keep my peace. If she had said 'I had expected Dita Von Teese and swaroski encrusted everythings, huge props and purely glamorous hollywood routines but this wasn't my thing' that would have been fine - but she doesn't, she criticises the performers, their ability and weirdly their costuming and makes out that the ticket price wasn't money well spent...which lots of people did think it was. Saying all this on the internet is exactly as bad as shouting it out at a performance, in fact I think it's worse as people who didn't see the show and can't judge for themselves may be influenced by it. I know you can never stop people voicing unkind statements about others....I just think if you knew you'd be hurt if someone said it about you, then keep it to yourself.
