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?

Logos said: "Australia does not have a single piece of paper with the word Constitution written on top of it". What about the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900? Or the Constitution Act 1889 (WA)? You're right, there is not a single one, there are 8 or 9 of the buggers! Logos also said: "The USA which was the first country in the world to have a written constitution". That is of course to ignore such scraps of paper as the English 'Magna Carta'. I'm sure the Greeks, Romans and French would have something to say about that as well. You may be confusing 'constitution' per se with 'bill of rights' which the Americans (and others) have incorporated in their constitutions. Ssstinger>>>
