Where are you all?

There is usually a drop in postings on this site during the Christmas period, and it picks up again in February. This year though, it feels as though nobody at all is posting - even us regulars seem to be posting less and less. Where are you all? I know I've been a bit busy (but then I'm always busy, and still manage to post)... is it simply busy-ness, or is it that people don't have anything interesting to say? Or perhaps we need another controversy, like Blackbox etc, to come along... Don't tell me there's nothing going on out there - there's plenty!! ... So I offer up a topic of question - I'm currently helping a girl get into puppetry, by introducing her around the place, inviting her to view rehearsals, sending her info, etc. It's the first time I've done something like this (though it does fit within my normal activities of helping fellow theatre people), and I'm just wondering how many people go out of their way to help newbies - and how many people have been turned down/accepted by those they admire/ask for help. Any comments? Na

I'm still around.

:-)

Although really struggling to keep up. I've been busier and busier with family. Then work just took a major upturn... even had to drop my very singular directing commitment this year.

We're currently ahead on traffic compared with this time last year, but it's not by a great deal.

Reality is: there's a lot of competition out there at the moment. There's more than ever to choose from if you're looking for australian theatre sites and not too picky about being barraged by spurious adverts (mind you, there's plenty of spurious comment here from time to time!). Sadly few sites syndicate their content: no new or event feeds! So you end up visiting dozens of sites trying to keep up with everything.

I've got a few ideas for trying to draw this all together a bit more, but it will take a fair bit of funding and I've a seven figure sum web project underway for work, too!

Next March is the tenth birthday of the site - yes, ten years check it out - so it would be good to have something in place by then.

Cheers
Grant
