KWINANA THEATRE UNDER THREAT!!
Sun, 29 Oct 2000, 09:26 pmEvery Theatre group's dream is to have their own home!
Why is it then that after 30 years KTW seems to be losing theirs.
KTW was enticed to move from their lovely digs in Atkinson Road to the now Kwinana Arts Centre on the proviso that they would have no less than they already had. For ten years this has been working perfectly, now it would seem KTW is faced with Arts Centre and Council indifference. Why are so many obstacles being thrown in their way in regards to the new lease agreement.
It would appear that the almighty dollar is greater than the community spirit of the Theatre. Over the years KTW has shown the quality of its productions through winning many awards. Most recently the Bunbury Festival Award for "Chinamen" and the oustanding production of "Too Far To Walk" which has been invited to present at the Finlay Awards. It would be a shame to see a theatre such as KTW be disbanded through greed of the almighty dollar...surely KTW is what community theatre is all about!

Too many theatres !
Very insightful observation Gill!
I wonder why not many people agree with you?
Lets ask a few people
Ok, quiet, everyone please put up their hand if they think that their theatre is redundant.
Hmm can't see anyones hands - strange, lets try again.
Can I have your attention again please !!!, come on please be quiet, you up the back shhh.
Does anyone know exactly how many theatres we actually need ?
Oh Gill, I see your hand is up - whats the answer . . . . . . . . . . . . .???
OK so maybe you can tell us which groups in your (not so) humble opinion can be dispensed with.
I'll just wait and see what your response is, you could probably lighten the overburden in local theatre by heroically getting another hobby yourself, maybe you will encourage other idiots to do the same.
