How many people have actually received faultless direction from a director ?

What came first - the director or the actor ?

>> All you need to create theatre is a performer, a performance, and an audience. (And without ALL three of those present, it's not theatre.)

Yeah, but Craig, you could still have a performance without an audience. Hell, I know I've done that in the past and still defined the work as theatre, even if only to save face with myself. Actually, most of the influential theatre practitioners of the 20th century reckon process is more important than the end product, but still consider what they do to be "theatre" and I suppose the next step away from that to eliminate the performance alltogether and wheeee! Look as Tom digs himself even deeper into the rabbit hole of introspective navel gazing :) How fun :)

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
