Has anybody seen page 7 of Tuesday's 'West'?
Item headed "WA tops nation in cultural pursuits"
"Figures released by the Bureau of Statistics showed that, on a per capita basis, more people in WA attended the theatre, dance, classical concerts, and operas or musicals than in any other state "
Nationally 16.6% attended theatre while in WA the figure is 17.9%
Rest of figures too long to quote but look them up, they are very interesting.
Next time your local Council indicates that allocating money to "culture" is a waste of time show them this!
