Audiences: Friends or strangers

It seems to me these days that the majority of theatre audiences are either fellow actors, friends or Pensioners (or a combination of them). Does this mean that Stage performances are a dying phase? Before television, computers, game machines and movie cinemas the theatre was the place to be. Now it is only for a minority of society. Any thoughts?

Ahhh Mr Malcolm... you have created a brilliant site here. And I am spreading the ITA throughout Europe. Between you and me in 18 years I have only walked out of one production. But, caught it later in the run. I tend to try and see pretty much every thing that is on.

Bottoms up
