It is sad to say that several of the shows on in Perth at the moment, both large and small, are not listed on this web site under the 'What's On' section.

This is a free promotion facility which we are all lucky to have, and yet recently I have had to try cross-referencing, looking up production companies and venues (one main one, still not even listed) in order to find the dates or times of shows that I have heard may possibly be on now.

Your audience shouldn't have to work hard to find you.

Don't let all your crew and actors work their guts out and not even list your production. Then wonder why no one has turned up!

Kind regards

I agree, so why don't you register and help us to build it? 

:-)

You complain about people "bitching about each other" but what appears to be your very first contribution on this site deliberately and quite viciously mis-characterises the contributions of the vast majority of the participants in this community. 

Maybe you were drawn or initially referred to the site because of a few barbed or immature remarks posted by a very few individuals? Have you explored much beyond this? Take your time, look around and you'll discover that these blips are completely outnumbered by the considered contributions from a very much larger group of people that share a common passion, interest and goals.

Put up or shut up time on this one.

I occasionally receive email from people claiming they've been defamed on this website. I make no representations as to my belief in the defamatory (note the spelling?) nature or otherwise but will, without question, remove any material that I'm informed is illegal, defamatory or unauthorised. 

If you know someone that believes they've been defamed, they should contact me immediately using the feedback form on this site telling me specifically what they want removed and why.

> It's quite sad.

What saddens me is that you seem to expect this diverse and largely tolerant community to change to reflect the same prejudice, bigotry and lack of tolerance that your post displays. 

Cheers
