If we don't reach out to make theatre affordable to the young generation, we will lose them all.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A theater is being given over to market forces, which means that a whole generation that should be able to do theater as well as see it is being completely deprived.
We need more theatres, more art and more culture in this country.
Theatre is great, but we don't live in an idealistic world, and we have to pay our bills.
I think it's sad that movies and television have caused the theatre to fade as a popular art form. I hope to get young people into the theatre and expose them to Shakespeare.
It's important to move the theatre into the 21st Century.
The economics of theater are painful. I still think that the theater community should be looking much more rigorously at how to let the playwright keep the money they make.
Theatres, along with the likes of the Ulster Orchestra, for example, are the cultural heartbeats of our towns and cities, and without them, we are much poorer for it.
We all need to go to good theater; that is what I believe will save it.
I don't think theater is dying, and musicals are a great American art form. We've got apple pie, jazz and musical theater.
We're so bereft of support of theatre in this day and age.
