It seems that those who are in the theatre biz connected to Michael Jackson are dealing with the whole affair with a great deal more honesty and dignity than most mainstream stars. You only need look at the beautiful piece Trevor Nunn wrote for the Times or how Thriller - Live's memorial was handled when compared to Madonna's transparent gushing.

I wrote a little blog on the topic, what do you reckon?

However Michael Jackson is hardly much of a loss to the theatrical world in comparison to the loss he is to the music world.

Ditto!! Well, maybe my second... but it certainly appeared pretty quickly.
