Staged

Why not, right? We've always been entertained by people who have given themselves to the theatre, especially #localtheatre. Nowhere else on the planet will you find such a concentrated group of single, underemployed oppositionalists who vary in age but consistently behave as if they are adolescents. If these types had even two quarters to rub together, all advertising directed at children and youths would be diverted; it really would be fish in a barrel.

We don't know that we'd be quick to point out being one of those performers. It seems like this commuter could be attracting a kind of attention that may be described in a word as unwanted. You're on notice theatre buff: that kind of live show doesn't pay well either.

If we may be so blunt, is there anywhere that members of local theatre companies don't "do it"? After all, if drama was meant only for the stage, their lives might cease to exist when the lights go down. But then, that show has been done already.
