Why is community theatre so bitchy?
Thu, 15 July 1999, 09:42 pmEMAILNOTICES>noWhy is there so much politics and bitchiness behind the scenes? You can deny it all you want and go on about the camaraderie, of which there can be, but I know of people who are no longer involved in theatre because of this sort of rubbish, driven underground, too scared to audition, too scared to even go see a show because of some of the carry-ons of the past, preferring to avoid these people instead. It's not just one theatre, it happens at them all.

I knew I'd get a rise out of someone with this line! :-)Of course critics serve their purpose, just like actors do. You wanna tell me there are no bitchy critics, or no bitchy actors?? This is (ostensibly) what makes theatre the vibrant life-giving exultant pursuit that it is... sometimes.RD
