Finley Awards
Wed, 11 Feb 2004, 02:37 pmGiven the passionate response from visitors to this site, in postings about the Finley Awards, coupled with the undoubted dedication of everyone involved, as the ITA AGM is due on Sunday 22nd February, I think that urgent consideration should be given to immediately holding a poll re the Finley Awards.
I realise that a similar poll was held some time ago, however there are now some very relevant questions needing urgent answers. The response to such a poll would be of enormous assistance to the new committee, in correctly ascertaining the wishes of the members and clubs they serve.
The Poll Title could be: “The Finley Award System, Should It Be Changed?
My suggestions for questions would be as follows:
1. No, donÂ’t change anything
2. Yes, but not much, just tweak a couple of things
3. Yes, the system needs a complete overhaul
4. The Finley Awards are no longer relevant and should be replaced
5. Awards systems are irrelevant
Theatre may be all about passion, however Leah is quite right in seeking some calm. I believe this poll would give everyone the opportunity to express their desire, without descending to personal attack and, as I mentioned, although not perfect, the results could be interpreted by the incoming committee as a general indication of what, if any direction, the local theatre community would like the Finleys to go.
Apologies to Grant for trying to add to his workload, however I think such a poll would currently be of enormous benefit to our local theatre community.
Cheers
