Why, are theatre people THAT socially awkward?

...oh wait.

This might go a LONG way toward removing some of the virulent animosity that occurs here - BRAVO, Rob for a brilliant idea!

Do we already have this as members? Or do we have to re-sign up? I just looked aat this and it asked for all the info I already give in order to post this message.

Would there be a way to suggest shows for adding?

[Rob]

Posted: 10/20/06 at 2:25pm

If you add a show under 'your settings' that doesn't already exist, it will add it in.

The last 5 Years and The Last Five Years are both in the top 25 shows....

There's a lot of shows and stars to choose from! This is a great idea. :)

I'm all by myself in my Joy Franz and Pamela Myers love. So cold...So alone.

At least there are plenty of Bebe folk to keep me company.

I thought perhaps we were all meeting for drinks.

Im all alone in The Grand Tour and Milk and Honey, of course, I had to add those myself . . .

Is there some ranking among the people side of this? What determines a performer's number?

I have just posted the first message on the "Tina Maddigan" board. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The ones that appear on the front page are the ones with the most members. Have no fear though, we'll be spotlighting the smaller, but active groups as well VERY soon in some upcoming features.

how do you join a "community"?, do you need a photo on your profile for it to show on the page?

[Calvin]

Posted: 10/20/06 at 10:59pm

Are there networks for composers? That might be useful considering the amount of discussion around certain composers.

[Julian2]

Posted: 10/21/06 at 3:16am

They are all grouped in with the people.

Incidentally, can anyone NOT say "Showcial" without sounding like Sean Connery? (That is kinda rhetorical.)

Element BOARDTYPE is undefined in URL.

Something's not working on the board. After reading a message, and I click on back to the main at the bottom, I get the following error message:
--------------------------
The error occurred in /home/bway/public_html/bway/showcialboard/index.cfm: line 1

1 : Cfif #url.boardtype# eq 'shows'
2 : Cfquery name="gets" datasource="bww"
3 : select showname
--------------------------

It only worked fine after I post something.
