Name the 5 best am. theatre co.'s in your state
Fri, 3 Dec 2004, 11:41 amI'm from Melbourne and the top 5 amatuer musical theatre companies in order are:
1): CLOC
2): Ballarat
3): Geelong Lyric
4): Geelong Footlights
5): Catchment
I'd be interested to see your posts as I know people who perform interstate and want to find out the quality theatres in their areas.
Also interested to hear from fellow victorians as to whether they agree with these choices.

Re: 5 best what?
Sun, 5 Dec 2004, 10:03 pmCraig's really correct, this would be a tricky question to pose as a poll.
Maybe I could implement star-ratings for companies? Although I could imagine it might disinitegrate into as lot of one and five star ratings being given out to a very few companies.
Best is always problematical idea. Perhaps favourite is a better way of describing this sort of popularity contest? Not least because it recognises that a personal choice might be made in ignorance of some potentially better choices.
My favourites? Probably too out of date to really be relevant given the amount of theatre I've been out to see recently, but I'm going to stick my neck out...
Roleystone, Garrick and Marloo for what I perceive (often from a distance) as their strong links with their community. Playlovers for having balls occasionally. And Grads for plugging away at the classics.
Oh and I'd love to throw in Little Theatre, Bunbury along with the first three. I've only ever seen a couple of one acts that they've produced. They possibly weren't particularly memorable. But I'm sure others will share my fondness for the friendship and warm hospitality over several SW Drama Festivals.
Cheers
