.......who has done/do paid Directing work who directed a community theatre piece this year? I'd be very surprised if there were no other 'professionals' who worked unpaid in community theatre this year. Actually, I know for a fact there other unpaid professionals who did and were eligible for the Finley competition. So if it wounds you so greatly, instead of posting cowardly anonymous snipes on this site, maybe you need to campaign to have all those who have/are working professionally who give of their time and expertise for free to community theatre to be banned. While you're at it, how about those with 'professional training'; for example the very large number of WAAPA, Curtain, UWA trained performers, directors, technicians, stage managers, etc., who may not have ever done a paid gig, but certainly are of professional standard and have been in/worked on many a 'professional' standard show. Hmmmm, whilst we're on a roll, how about those who do co-op shows and may well end up with next to nothing in their pocket? Ban them too? Good luck with that by the way. You could single handedly pretty much decimate the community theatre scene in Perth. Then there'd be no shows (or at least very little worth watching), no ITA and no Finleys to bitch about. And then what would you do with your time?
