Barrie Stacey (April 26, page 8) correctly condemns Any Dream Will Do as a means of casting professional musical productions from amateurs off the streets. However, it is good basic television fodder for audiences far from London who cannot get to a theatre.
What could provide a fitting climax to the series and more free publicity for the production would be for the experienced panel to win back respect and to admit after the ten programmes, they have not found a Joseph. They could then seek someone from the fully trained professionals in the industry.
