In the UK, Andrew Lloyd Webber and David Ian have been named the most powerful men in the theatrical world for their stunt of doing a reality show to find a Maria for a revival of "The Sound Of Music."

Webber's next reality show? Finding a new star for "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." You'll know this trend has gone to far when they try to cast "Hamlet" this way.
