BETTY Central

 
BETTY Rules is the story of the band's development, the ups and downs and the sideways lurches. The reviews after the first night were rave, as were the audiences. As the slogan went, truly 'the exception to the musical'.

BETTY continued to develop the show, going to Chicage in 2004 and Washington DC 2005 and 2006.
