Arts industry related sources from Australia are spreading the rumour that the small time YouTube Fan Series 'Sean The Aussie Fan Of [title of show]'s Show' is planning a Big City run. Word from the net says that the other Boys From Oz are planning some form of small variety show about the journey to New York which has already taken them well over 6 months of planning.
However with only 21 days remaining until the trip, and no confirmation of the show, critics are skeptic.
After scouring the net we found this publicity release:
'Forget Hugh Jackman's possible Broadway Return, and quit waiting for Priscilla to arrive Sean and his trusty side kicks Jarrod and Matt are on their way from Down Under to the Big Apple for a night of songs and laughs in 'Sean The Aussie Fan Of [title of show]'s Live Show Christmas Spectacular'. The ever so slightly popular YouTube series 'Sean The Aussie Fan Of [title of show]'s Show' is currently undergoing the 'Live Show' transformation it deserves, and will be playing for one night only in New York City- the town they've longed to be in for the last few months. A night of fun and frivolity awaits with fancy guest stars (hopefully) and fun surprises (again we hope) as the trio takes on their travel story, Broadway's super fans and message boards, the economic crisis and whether Airplane food is really a joke!
Sean, Jarrod and Matt have been entertaining viewers on YouTube since April this year when the series premiered, but also have experience putting on shows and appearing in other things. Who could forget their performances in the Australian Amateur Premiere of 'High School Musical On Stage' or the thrilling performance of 'The Famous Hep-Pae Brothers Circ De Funct', and you'll definitely remember them from their other hit YouTube series 'The Mafia Show'...actually then again you may not as no one has seen that.
So if you're in New York, and you're a fan of the YouTube series, or a fan of [title of show] or a fan of SOMETHING you're certain to enjoy 'Sean The Aussie Fan Of [title of show]'s Live Show Christmas Spectacular' where there's something for everyone!'
It sounds like a truly exciting event-
But there is a few problems.
The group are 21 days out from New York
They don't have a producer,
They don't have a venue,
They don't even know if this dream could become a reality.
So that is where YOU can help!
It's time to make some more dreams come true people as Sean, Jarrod and Matt seek out to put on a great little one night only show in 21 days! If they can!
Do you own or know someone that owns a venue that might like to have us come play there?
Perhaps one of the empty Broadway houses now that Jarrod's closed all the shows to make room for us?
Maybe somewhere all arty and Off-Broadway...
Ok maybe a bit too much of an ask
How about a rehearsal studio, or a little bar with a performance space, somewhere that has an open mic night or perhaps a karaoke venue that we could hijack for a night?
Secondly- our show really has no budget, as we're busting pretty much all our bank accounts just getting to New York- so do you know someone willing to kick in some hours and produce us, help us get everything sorted out?
Do you think you could offer us anything else?
Currently we're scouting for special guests and fun surprises, depending on where we end up we might need some sound or lighting, or perhaps a projected backdrop, or other cool tidbits like that. Maybe you know other people that enjoy our YouTube show...as such you could pass this on and tell them. Maybe you know people that know people that have cool stuff that could help us!
Put it this way-
Broadway's lookin a lil like a sinking ship right now-
We figure you need some Aussie cheer to restore your faith that theatre will continue fighting on.
This will be a show by fans, about fans, for fans! A tale of how a bunch of teenagers who were fans of [title of show], John Tartaglia and The Sopranos managed to come to New York, have an adventure and put on a show, thanks to a thriving community of other fans on the internet!
We can make this happen!
We can get a show on in less than 21 days!
But we need your help!
So start calling or emailing or facebooking messaging those peeps you know!
Comment this message with any news you have or feel free to private message me, and let's try and get this thing off the ground!

The Nightmare
Hey folks, so I thought this episode deserved a blog post, because it has some pretty big news attached to it, if you haven't seen it, you better take a look because this post will contain spoilers:
So as you can see Steff is no longer coming to New York with us :(
However the above episode is a little dramtised, and I shall now explain that.
1. There was no argument. We're good friends and would not let something boil to a head like that, especially not with Steff- she's too nice to do that to.
2. It was definitely not about Avenue Q- Steff does actually like Avenue Q as we all do, it just worked well for the episode to explain it this way, with Jarrod on his Avenue Q Over All Evil Mission
3. It is because of the economic crisis, keep that in mind kiddies when considering investing money in stuff.
4. It's been news that we've kept for some time. You may hear me reference it a few episodes ago just as the "There is life outside your apartment" music begins to play. We have actually known since the closing day of [title of show].
So there's the sad/bad news, Steff will not be joining us.
The good news is:
1.We're all still friends.
2. Jarrod, Matt and I will still be coming to New York from Dec 14-22 as planned, BOYS TRIP!
3. We will be seeing Avenue Q
4. We will be getting presents for Steff.
So there is some explanation to the latest episodes events, and the truth behind the show. We hope you're still enjoying taking the journey with us- highs and lows, dramatised and non-dramatised.
41 Days To Go!!!!!!
See you all soon!
Sean
