Posted: 7/2/08 at 7:38pmCan I put you all in direct contact with the board? They're so used to "ruling by consensus" that it takes forever to make a decision. We're on a bind, need a decision made, and some still want to stall. I've decided I'm making an executive decision tomorrow.

That's great, D2! A strong board chair makes ALL the difference. The big problem is...he/she still has to deal with the members who are one or more of the following:
wishy-washy
clueless
arrogant
crazy
near-death
stupid
boring
antagonistic
lazy
overly critical
passive
And the bigger they are, the harder they DRIVE YOU NUTS!

Posted: 7/2/08 at 7:53pmThe "Dance of the Damn Egos" sounds like something outlawed under Castro's regime!

I know, Miss P. We have a few of those. It's going to be a very interesting, exciting and dare I say it, PASSIONATE season!

Posted: 7/2/08 at 8:01pmAt least you have something worth fighting for, D2. You have a "product" you can be proud of. Some theatres produce such dreck that the only people who want to sit on their boards are those incapable of distinguishing between good and HORRIBLE!

Posted: 7/2/08 at 8:03pmI have to say I'm excited by the scripts chosen for next season - they are all quite good, a couple of them are absolute dynamite. And to get the premiere of a Romulus Linney play is quite a coup for us.

The Dance of The Damn Egos, a new musical dramatic farce by Hep.
Our board is too used to "coasting" for so long that they don't know what to do now that we're challenging them. They all appreciate what we're doing, they just have no idea how to do it. We booted the "crazy" so we're doing good.

DD, after being in a room with you for 5 minutes, people automatically trust you. Plus, you have real talent. You'll have that board well-oiled in no time!
Heppy, I hear that many more damn-egos are coming out of their shells now that Fidel's baby brother is running the show.
D2, you do consistently challenging and exciting stuff. Of course, when they do YOUR play, we'll know they have truly "arrived."

Posted: 7/2/08 at 8:18pmIt wasn't the board. Our board rarely interferes with the creative and /or artistic decisions.

Yeah, well, they'll be sorry when it gets picked up by another theatre company, becomes a big hit and moves to Broadway.

Deet, when you win the Pulitzer, try not to forget us.

I don't know CPR, but I'd be happy to jump up and shout, "Is there a doctor in the house???"
Also, I've been waiting a lifetime to do it.
Oh wait, there WILL be a doctor in the house. No worries!!!
