The debate as to whether local theatre is amateur or community theatre is a hoary old chestnut. However, on looking through the Theate.asn. website, I am now wondering if there should other considerations.

The contributors to this site have used the following:-

Ameteur theatre (19 times), Amature theatre (84), Amatuer theatre (190), Amteur theatre (1), Amtuer theatre (1), Ametuer theatre (14) and the correct spelling of Amateur theatre (>500).
Perhaps Community theatre (>1500) is safer, with the only variation being Comunity theatre (21) and thankfully Communety (0).

I notice no-one commented on the encroaching sms-ese abbreviations used also on this site. RJT
