EMAILNOTICES>noHas anyone actually thought that the reason Effie Crump closed and is not being bailed out is because their productions are not all that good? Every so often one works but the rest... they might be employing actors and local scripts but if the production is up to shite, then why bother?

Hey, you're welcome to your opinion (and to the opportunity to express it here *grin*), but i had hoped you'd have offered some justification for your off hand dismissal of the work done by the company.Casual cyncism is highly fashionable in some circles and but is not always a good indicator of profound intellect or sound judgement.CheersGrant
