<p>Thanks Emmybet. Exactly. I’m not bashing touring shows and have also seen some great ones. I was trying to understand the weird article. We are also very lucky to have an excellent community theater in our region with a previous director who is a pretty impressive retired professional. He does it for love. The set designer puts in weeks of painstaking work just because he deeply cares about the artistry. The orchestra is, well, an orchestra. Compare that to cheesy cardboard backdrops dragged off a bus, a piano and a synthesizer, and actors and dancers who obviously needed a few more rehearsals. It was bad. And, yes it was non-equity.</p>
<p>But, it’s also more work opportunities for our kids and I don’t dislike Wal-Mart. I’m headed there this morning!</p>
