The 2008 Finleys promise to be the best yet, already they're causing a stir and getting some people really excited. Let's face it whatever happens its a great dress up night, time to chat, socialise and clap until your hands are sore.... it's a time to congratulate those lucky few who have got an award to treasure for years to come, because on the night they did really well and excelled, something those of us who are serious about Community Theatre will always strive to do, whether we win an award or not. See you there at the Lady Wardle Performing Arts Centre, St Mary's Anglican Girl School, Elliott Rd, Karrinyup on Saturday January 17, 2009 doors open 6pm for a 7pm start. Further information can be gained by emailing itaperth@gmail.com - Tickets $22 Bookings 9335 2255 or itaperth@gmail.com - paypal payments available.

The nomination debate

Wed, 14 Jan 2009, 11:11 am
Seems abundantly clear that these anonymous people are either disgruntled ego-monkeys who didn't get a nomination or related to disgruntled ego-monkeys who didn't get nominated. Seriously, get over it! It's so very very simple - if you don't like the Finleys, p**s off and do something else Saturday night and let the rest of us enjoy the occasion. Or better still - if you're such a great appraiser of theatre, volunteer to be a Finley adjudicator and then you can arrange to have all your friends nominated in future can't you? (tongue firmly in cheek). To suggest that someone wasn't nominated because they weren't on good terms with the adjudicators suggests you are on bad terms with a LOT of people because there are 4 adjudicators on the panel and they're a pretty diverse bunch. Perhaps it's your attitude that needs adjusting and not the adjudicators? If you Walters whinge as much in real life as you do on this website it's unsurprising people don't gravitate to you.
