PASSION IN OUR INDUSTRY
Wed, 8 Feb 2006, 03:01 pmHey Peeps,
My name is Rose and i would like to post one thing and one thing only,we have to be the only industry i know that gets paid great amounts to do what we love to do and we do it with passion and energy everyday,we also get paid to pass on our OWN knowledge and experience to our peers that know only what we tell to them so how about we let go of all the bagging and concentrate on working together to create a wholesome,full and vibing community rather than creating tension for all those that need to work together and lets work in harmony,for we are only gypsies!
Love Light and Happiness

Wed, 15 Feb 2006, 06:57 amFor some professional actors and technicians, assisting an amateur production is an opportunity to give something back to the community; keep their hand in while they are searching for paid work (it doesn't come in one continuous flow, but fluctuates from season to season); keep their hand in while they do 'normal' work (when they find professional work simply isn't paying the bills enough); some people find that the professional environment is too difficult to keep up with, and return to amateur for the 'relaxed' outlook on theatre; or for the pure enjoyment.
I also know many people who work on amateur shows because they have the opportunity to learn new skills in new roles - a friend works with a youth theatre group because she often does directing and production management, something she hasn't been able to do as a professional.
They may be two different communities, but most of the emerging artists will come from an amateur company and go on to developing a career in the arts. It's also another way to network.
