Lots of people come and go on this board so I thought I'd start a 'home base' thread for newbies to start with and for all us fogies to reintroduce ourselves to one another.
Even if you're just a lurker and this is the only post you ever make or ever intend to make, stop by, say 'hi,' tell us who you are (don't have to give your real name if you don't want to, although first names sure are friendly) and what you do and maybe something about you we might not guess otherwise. Even if you're here 24 hours a day and post in every thread, still take a second and say 'hi.'
And answer one simple little question for fun: Name one performer you've never seen live and onstage that you'd like to see. (I'm meaning people who do theater traditionally.)
I'll start:
My name is, as my nickname implies, John Popa. That's a long 'o' sound, by the way. I'm 30 and in NE Ohio (Canton, to be specific.) I do some community theater, write a bit (sometimes more than a bit.) When I'm not bitching about theater, I'm bitching about movies, comic books, pro wrestling (really, I know wrestling history the way people around here know Broadway history) ... all sorts of nerdy things like that. I also use a lot of parenthetical references in my writing (if you haven't noticed.)
I've never seen Elaine Paige onstage and would sure like to.
So everyone, say 'hi.'
