Suggestion for new page heading
Fri, 6 Aug 2004, 09:37 amHaving read the many posts from young hopefuls looking for guidance on this website, I'd like to make a suggestion.
Perhaps a new area could be created for tips on how to get started in theatre. With the wealth of knowledge held by the experienced actors within these posts I'm sure a very informative guide would result. This would reduce the number of posts requesting auditions, agents, jobs etc, as well as reduce the many repetitive replies.

When I initiate a post, I try to make sure 'Billboard Bulletins' is for the actual advertising of a show or event; 'Theatre Classifieds' for things like help wanted, prop needed, music gear for sale, etc; everything else goes into 'Greenroom Gossip'.
Maybe there could be a whole section devoted to people who want to say 'I love acting, so please let me know about jobs'...so at least they would be all grouped together to make it easier for all the talent scouts who are desperate to find young actors by looking at websites...
Cheers,
Craig
