10 Things I love about the ITA

I work in finance - an industry which is having the guts kicked out of it at the moment. My day is full of doom and gloom news and frankly, if I didn't have a positive outlook, it'd be razor blades and warm baths (I'm sure some of you wish I'd embraced that path). On top of that you open the newspaper and it's war, depression, teenage drug deaths, and sporting results that have gone the wrong way. Theatre is my escape and the last thing I need is logging onto a website and seeing more doom, gloom, horror and pessimism surrounding the thing I love. So....I think I've let the harbingers of doom and gloom have their say about the ITA. I have entertained their ideas - dismissed most of them because of the emotive way they were promulgated and in some instances thought "Y'know, that's a good point". But I'm sick of negativity for now. Here's your challenge. Let's build a list of 10 things we LIKE about the ITA. Good positive stuff so we can emerge from the morass of depressive comment that has held sway here in recent times. Just 10. Make 'em good, make 'em factual, but above all - make 'em bright. Seeing as I've started the thread I heartily endorse that in the spirit of positivity we moderate ANY negativity out of existence. You wanna do that? Start your own bloody thread!! O.k, I'll kick it off...... 1) I'm grateful that this website exists as an ITA initiative because it keeps me in touch with what's happening in community theatre here in Perth. Over to you guys....
