I write regarding the closure and censorship of the below thread - Blackbox Management: Good or Bad? http://www.theatre.asn.au/node/5973 I recently had a young actress write to me and ask a question about her agency, so I sent her this link. It is a tradgic shame that dozens of people's comments have been censored, but I respect Theatre Australia for having posted that these messages were deleted as a result of one John W. of Blackbox Management. It is made clear to everyone what is really going on. This young actress was, suffice it to say, not happy in her current situation. Will you delete my post for saying that?

Actually I THINK his secretary said he would have said it if he'd thought of it. Therein lies the problem with freedom of speech. People who hold opinions regarding race, colour, religion, even what car you drive are allowed to say what they like as much as you are. Political correctness has started to lead us down a slippery slope of censorship at the bottom of which lies a world in which nobody can say anything that the government disagrees with. And we're back on censorship and it's mostly my fault. (Takes a bow and departs stage left.) Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing. www.tonymoore.id.au
