  • I would encourage theaters that give free tickets, to not limit them to rich people with computer access.
    Part of the art revolution is to make theater available to all. Steps like these help, but I think that until we have theater in malls like film theaters, AND at the same prices as film theaters; we won’t have a vibrant theater. I picture a theater megaplex with a classic play in one theater, a short in another, a one man play in a third, a comedy in the fourth, a drama in the fifth, a musical in the sixth, an experimental theater room, a children’s theater room, etc. And maybe one more that’s open to patrons to watch theater groups rehearse or an actors study class.
    Theater couldn’t help but grow under such conditions.

    Tom, I think you bring up an interesting idea about having theater stages become as ubiquitous as movie theaters, with several options available at once. That would take a level of collaboration among theater groups that I have a hard time imagining, but since we’re thinking big here, I like the idea.
