Is this the only show less-than-imaginative theatre groups can come up with? Surely there are other less performed pieces that you could be enticing theatre-goers with? Come on - set the scene...

Hi Terry,
I would loved to get involved in theatre but I am not in a postion to just at the moment. I have two very young children and work from home - so any spare time is my money. I can't help but feel that your invitation is born out of what appears to be the fact that you are some what offended by what I said. I am not one who falls for that ' "well can you do any better" crap. Quite frankly, I don't think it's the point. People read books by authors because - well they are readers and not writers. Audiences go along to plays to watch a play not take part in them. As an audience member I think Perth theatre companies are selling us short. We live in a unique place with some pretty unique experiences and I just think that a nit of variety would go a long way in the Perth theatre scene. And dare I say nobody knows whether doing something different will be a success because nobody has actually tried.
