Before we go further, please look at this web-page:
Look for the listings of productions By YOUR Theater Company. I know they're there, because that's how I got your e-mail address. If there are any mistakes --- or if you DON'T find any of your company's shows --- please e-mail me Immediately with corrections! [larry@theatermirror.com]
Then I'd like you to do a favor:
Please, can you mention this web-page somewhere in your programs?
Y'see, I started The Mirror thinking people who SAW theater would be most interested in the web-site. It's turned out, though, that almost everyone who checks into The Mirror regularly is someone who MAKES theater --- in other words, the people who may need it most (i.e., AUDIENCES) STILL DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT!
You can help me change that. A brief note like this would be enough:
The new season starting next week will show an explosion of new young companies everywhere, and a spirit of cooperation that means people no longer look upon other companies as "enemies" competing for audience. In Boston alone the number of companies is well above a hundred, and a new group called the Small Theatre Alliance of Boston (S.T.A.B.) is making it easy for them to cooperate rather than compete.
This I think is the year that everything I've seen happening in the past five or ten years comes to stunning theatrical fruition.
Now all we have to do is make Play-GOERS aware of what Play-MAKERS have known: that theater is Alive And Well, all over Massachusetts!
Thank you for your attention, and Break A Leg ALL!
Love,
