Hey guys, those who know, I am a Musical Theatre performer as a profession, who also works as a Technician for Theatre, leading to calls wanting me to work for them last minute. But what I'm interested in is your views on Theatre, whether it is Straight Acting, Musical Theatre, Shakespeare, etc. Afterall, Wrestling can be seen as a form of Theatre, so it's quite difficult to deny any interest in Theatre.

I haven't seen as much theatre as I would have liked, to the point where I can't really speak of favourite plays or musicals as I haven't seen enough to form much of an opinion. I can say most of my theatre visits have been enjoyable.
My girlfriend and Ihave seen Wicked and the Witches of Eastwick (With ian McShane) and both were highly enjoyable. And I also saw a Briotish Tv Show 'Bottom' Live on stage twice, which was good fro what it was.
Most of my trips to the Theatre have been to see Stand Up comedians to be honest, so I can certainly say I like the seating lol.
However I am going to the Royal Shakespeare Company to see Matilda in November, as the music is written by my favourite comedian Tim Minchin.
Wish I could be more interesting.

In high school I was heavily involved with the drama department. Actor primilarly but I was quick to help the tekkies. I believe theatre beats cinema anyday of the week. Much better actors really. I think David Hasselhoff's best work was when he was in the musical of Jekkyl and Hyde.
