Going to see theatre
Mon, 27 Aug 2001, 09:37 amjust somethings i thought of last night:
personally - i do not go to the theatre often. i can't drive myself around and i don't have any money. :-o
is it as important that actors go to see theatre as well as act in theatre(or whatever they want to act in)?
what are everyone elses views on this matter?
i act, sing, dance, play 2 instuments and am involved with a couple of theatre companys as well as help run one.
as a part of learning about the performing arts - should young actors go to theatre to help them learn? does attending theatre make a better actor?
i would love to hear other thoughts!

Mon, 27 Aug 2001, 03:07 pmVery well said Indi.
Although I don't think Amanda and I were suggesting that we are of such a level of talent that we do not need to widen our scope with a wide variety of theatre other than our own.
Even though I am not in a position to enjoy the wonderful variety of theatre that Australia has to offer very often, this only being due to time and money constraints, I can certainly acknowledge what benefits such an exposure would have.
If I were in more of a position to attend more productions, I would certainly love nothing more...... perhaps then I would not be "sabotaging" my "talent" as you have suggested that some of us may be doing....(for the record I never suggested that I was talented!)
Ufortunately in the meantime I will have to contend with the various workshops I attend and extensive and stimulating direction from the companies I work with....
I hope I can see Singing in the Rain though.........
Nah, thats a must!
