I Read a Book about John Dos Passos

So, just to clear something up.

Because people have asked:

We are not a street/guerrilla theater group. There's a purpose and proper time for that (mostly in protest situations) but our mission here is not to force theatrical events onto an unwilling audience. There are enough other groups that do that. Take what implications you might from that...

Well then, now that we sound like total jerks, moving right along...

So we're planning a fundraiser and the initial thought is an open bar, I wonder what people would think is a fair price? It looks like it might end up being $30-32 for 2 hours ($20 to the bar, $10-12 to the theater) or $12 donation to get in for a cash bar, but no promises.

Also, the more I think about it the more I am considering removing the bit about "gritty realism" and "absurdism" from our purpose. I think we're better off simplifying it to minimalism in terms of production and not trying to force ourselves into other boxes. Thoughts? Anybody? (note, 1/11/09: well, too late, it's done)

I love you and everything is beautiful*,
