I've never met a brex regret

[TaleSpin]

Those reputed regretters...they must hang out in the psyches of rabid Remainers, for I sure ain't met one!

I'm just wondering if people are able to buy tickets for this new creative offering or will they go to the more established shows next door?

Also, the school sinks pretty soon after because the Tory govt unfettered by those pesky EU employment laws has smashed all the teachers' terms and conditions to smithereens so it's now entirely staffed by unqualified hopefuls who haven't got a clue.

Who's the director in this play?

The key to the rebuilding of the drama department is 'over time'. It's easy to close something down, make staff redundant, sell the building the drama dept is in off for housing. Rebuilding the drama dept, well, needs new staff and whoops, no staff are trained to teach drama in this country.......

OK I think we have overworked this analogy now.

I don't know, Soren, but apparently on a PTA night out he got a bit overfamiliar with a pig - or that's the rumour I've heard anyway.

The school has made an utter laughin mg stock of itself now anyway, so I think all the other schools are looking much more attractive to staff and parents so I don't think they will sell that many tickets, you're right.

Actually, Peregrina, the lack of trained staff available is a problem, isn't it? Aren't we several hundred negotiators short of being able to organise Brexit with any kind of success?

Only problem is that the old drama teachers are pretty cross and are going to recover everything they can from their school in the negotiations on their break up, which means the drama department is going to struggle and be underfunded. All the other drama teachers in the country have watched events and think the school was pretty arrogant and badly behaved and it gets a bad reputation. Some of them have been producing lots of brilliant very motivated students who realise they are not entitled to success and the drama department and what with the poor reputation, sense of entitlement and standard of the new departments it's pupils just can't compete.

At least they're all reading from the same script?

Or have they made up their own production based on the title "Brexit - the musical" - it's an improv production.

(Milking this analogy)

Actually and this is not an analogy all the management consultancies are putting out feelers to anyone with an even vague knowledge of commercial negotiation and world economies and cultures / different industry sectors . Given the salaries being talked the government is clearly realising it will have to pay through the nose to fill the skills gap.

Ah, Brexit the musical - it has the bitterly ironic humour, the backstabbing and betrayal, the bewilderingly implausible plot twists in which logic gets sucked into a giant black hole and an unfortunate tragic ending but never mind about that, because LOOK AT THAT BLOKE WITH FUNNY HAIR, HE'S SUCH A HILARIOUS BUFFOON, HA HA HA.

Same goes for the legal side of things and indeed the academic / science issues that need to be resolved.

Plus that evil Tory party theme hummed by the Headmaster as he went back to his office.....

It was just a shame about those accidentally racist posters that went up advertising it, wasn't it? Though of course, they made absolutely NO difference to ticket sales at all, did they..?

Would payment for tickets be in bitcoins, as a more stable currency?

Brexit the Musical will be on hold now until after the summer holidays. It will definitely go ahead. A musical means a musical the new drama teacher says. Whether it contains songs or drama who knows

Would payment for tickets be in bitcoins, as a more stable currency ?

BTC were climbing in price recently, as a lot of big companies were (quietly) stocking up on them in case of getting hit by a ransomware demand ....

Well, we know it won't be as advertised and most of the billed cast did a runner so I'm imagining quite a few people who bought tickets won't get what they expected - just hoping those lawyers contesting the 'no refund' policy get somewhere...

I know two bregretters.

One is MIL. She said "the old people voted, but they didn't really know what they were voting for". So I'm guessing she's a bregretter.

The other is an estate agent in London. He lost loads of sales overnight. What did he think would happen? (FWIW, if house prices in London do fall, then it's probably a good thing, IMO, although it's looking like a lot of foreign investors are taking a punt due to the value of the pound falling through the floor, so it might just be a blip, anyway.)

But anyway, the main thing is that those annoying parents who expressed their concerns and annoyance at the farce it has become get thoroughly rebuked because it's just so unfair if they start pointing out the problems and totally harshing little Johnny and his friends' buzz, man. It'll be their fault if it goes wrong for not thinking enough POSITIVE THOUGHTS.

Critics are expressing incredulity at the plot of Brexit the musical and saying they must have made it up as they went along - especially the bit where the bloke with the weird haircut mounts the barricades land rowses the people with a cross between one of Winston's speeches from WW 2 and Henry V but when they win he goes off to play cricket for two days and then gets stabbed in the back by his lieutenant after a rousing chorus of "You were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off"

Here he is

He's behind youuuuu

Oh no he isn't!

But the new play is so pioneering that word gets around...loads of other schools start copying the format...before long President Trump sends his honchos to strike a deal with the school to export their product....

Nah! He is interested only in "Trump - the musical" , not enough bling, boobs and bigotry and above all him, for his taste
