Someone mentioned how there were 7 community shows on last week in Perth. This week nothing new.

This site has a very good 'Whats on' section, why don't groups pencil in a date that they are considering months ahead, as this will stop duplication of identical shows - sometimes on in the same week. They could always put (pencil in) at the end of the play title.

I picked up a leaflet promoting a show in a couple of months and as yet it hasn't been listed on 'Whats on'. If you want to get the best audiences and as little competition as possible, please plan ahead.

I have a great deal of respect for the people who have replied on this tag and the other link, and they know more than I do about organising a show.

However, if there are several opening nights on the same week, would it matter much if a couple moved forward a week and a couple moved back a week?

This would surely allow actors to see other shows and be better for their ticket sales.

Pencilling in would not tie them to booking with the play's agent, but would let others see what was coming in the distant future.

Gordon,
