Omnibus Morals
Tue, 19 Oct 1999, 09:25 amHello Grant,
Yes I can certainly see your point regards the issues of morals etc. As for a flawed analogy...perphaps but then it did work for Picasso :-)Again I say to you though..have you asked to see Omnibus books recently. Perhaps you may be surprised and perhaps they may show you. It appears you may have asked a few years ago, maybe someone should ask again and then the rights or wrongs of the issue can be further discussed.
I must thank you Grant for the opportunity that allows people to have their say in a non threatening and informative site such us this

Why do i feel that when people resort to this argument it is often to excuse activity that is otherwise reprehensible?"the law ... is an ass"Interesting comment. Unfortunately it is reductico ad absurdium. Like it or not companies and individuals must work within the legal frame work of our state. Right or wrong that is the way it is. I have not resorted to this line of argument it is simply a FACT nothing anyone can do about it short of canvasing the Fedral Attorney Generals Office to have such laws altered. I spend a lot of my time dealing with the legal system and indeed studying it and yes I have even had meetings with the Federal Attorney General over issues I am not "happy" with in an attempt to change things. It must be remembered that actors are not forced to volunteer it is a freedom of choice and they have chosen that path. If companies like Omnibus did not exist would these actors still be given the same oportunity to practice their craft and if so where and by whom? As I have pointed out before I have worked on 9 of the Omnibus productions without pay. I am also employed by professional theatre (when time allows)and I do have the relevent qualifications. Crazy, yes I possibly am but through Omnibus I have been given an opportunity to practice my craft and develop it. Perhaps the Actors have used Omnibus in the same manner..Just a thought ...could be wrong of course.
PS Grant it is a lovely day...would you like to do some weeding :-)
