...it's ALL about getting awards nominations or pissing about it when you don't get one. Those are the SOLE reasons for doing theatre. I've been at home all day railing against the inequity of it all, holding the knife to my wrists, and cursing everyone who adjudicated or got nominated or even attended theatre this year because 2010 is suddenly empty with no Finley nomination. Why why why, boohoohoo!!! I may have to find a new career because I won't have a Finley on my resume. My friends will shun me without one. Oh whoa is me. After all, having attended all 67 productions I'm in the perfect position to know people were gipped and just plain robbed. Does no-one care for their fragile egos, particularly those musical theatre types who are so so sensitive. If only theatre was about being a hobby and entertaining people but I NEED the acclaim a Finley brings otherwise what's the friggin' point? Given some people are STUPID enough to get so upset about the Finleys I'll point out the venomous dripping sarcasm of this post so that you don;t spend all night nodding your heads vigorously in agreement.
