I think you may have misunderstood me - there are plenty of WA actors who are making great livings for themselves Over East acting in shows such as All Saints, Neighbours, Water Rats, etc. The issue that I am concerned about is that rather than cast PERTH shows with PERTH actors, they insist on bringing Melbourne or Sydney actors over. A great example of this is Glenn Elston's Australian Shakespeare Company in King's Park. Half the cast were from Over East, and WA actors were consigned to understudy roles, when the company would have saved a packet in living away from home wages by casting someone from Perth who would do the job just as well. I guess the point I'm making is that shows like 'Away' or 'Cosi' or 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' or whatever is going to rake in the audiences and the dollars no matter what - even if they do star 'Toadfish' or someone. It's just frustrating that the largest companies can't take the lead of great WA companies like Barking Gecko, DeckChair, and PTC who almost always cast locals.

There's my rant.
