I can vent this here, no where else.
There's a professional theatre company in my area that just let it out there that they need 3 million dollars or they will have to close their doors. This company takes great pride in programming a season were they feature a few World Premiers if possible, but most of the time their shows they choose are plays or musicals that are not that well known. I see their post and I just want to say - do a few seasons of shows that people recognize and then start to work in other things. People just want to see what they want to see.
There, I've said it.
