Its time to stop! Now. The amateur theatre community is doing itself possibly irreparable harm. I have been trying to secure sponsorship of the annual Finley Awards and have just taken a phone call from the people IÂ’ve been working with, to the effect of why would they want to get involved with that sort of back biting and viciousness, as who on earth would want to take the risk of being mixed up with that sort of publicity.

Craig,


My email to the paper was sent early Monday as a direct response to Inside Cover. That they have taken until now to publish is due to John Quigley!


I did not intend my email to be taken as "absolving me of blame", the point really being that I would have fought strongly to have kept the understudies had I been brought into the discussions. They had been promised the Saturday matinee, they were more than capable of giving a great performance. Many people had bought tickets to specifically see the understudies on the Saturday, and may I add that the audience's response to the show on the Wednesday night was one of the best responses we had during the run.
