A question...

If you set up an awards thing I'd be up to go see shows and review etc. I think it's a great idea. In fact anything you decide to put forward I'm up for, if it's possible for me to do. Count me in! As for improving the industry- America has Broadway, the UK have West End we need an area with a name like that, a theatre district. I have considered knocking out the shops along South Bank and replacing them with theatre. Then Australia could have the 'South Bank' to rival West End and Broadway. Now...that is more joking, people I'm not some wrecking ball don't go hating me!!! But then I realised that are near there is doing pretty good theatre wise. The Arts centre on the corner, The Palms at Crown, Malthouse Theatre complex down the road, VCA, there's a new music recital and performance space being built. There's a little district growing there. Anyway... Now for ideas... let's see. How about getting a group of people together from all different aspects of theatre, all different styles etc. Have a playwright and a director, actors, choreographers etce etc and create something new. Maybe find some up and coming people in these areas and get them together and have them put on a show to get an opportunity to experience putting something on. Maybe if you can get some bigger people in the industry who can be inspiring and kind of teachers. Kind of like a work experience program...I read on another thread that we lacked that 'good' work experience in the industry let's maybe create something like that. If I think of something else I'll post it.
