Audiences need to lift their game
Mon, 19 Mar 2001, 06:10 amSo writes Timothy (Kafka Dances) Daly in this article in the Sydney Morning Herald.
"Let's be brutally frank: in the main, our theatre audiences are pleasant, well-mannered, not very knowledgeable, intellectually undemanding, slightly imaginative, and with a very strong comfort zone. A former artistic director of Sydney Theatre Company once complained that his subscribers "only care about having comfortable seats and good coffee""
Check it out.
Cheers
