I know there are some people who genuinely believe theatre can only ever be a hobby. You put on a costume, you walk onstage, people look at you and clap. It’s easy. It’s fun!
I’ve learned, however, that theatre is only as much fun as the work you put into it. The harder you work on it, the more fun it is.
Observe, and then tell me this looks like mere “fun”.
Oh by the way; this is showing LIVE at the movie theatre in West Edmonton Mall next Thursday, 30 January. I bought my ticket in September.
