*** YOUR MESSAGE *** I've noticed that there is yet another rather large niche that seems to be missing. Is there anyone out there in USENETland who is interested in theater, either as a spectator or a participant? You East Coast folks: what reviews can you give us of Broadway's latest? Anybody written any scripts that they'd like to share with others? What about community and semi-professional theater around the country? Any amusing anecdotes from the local stage? Any pointers for making the most of that audition? Surely, you techies have interesting tips that can be shared with other techie types or problems that other techies could help you with. I propose that a good place for it would be net.rec.theater (or net.rec.theatre) if there is sufficient interest. As for me, I'm a theater buff who has recently designed lights, completed a script and is preparing for an audition. I'll also be seeing a show in NY during Christmas. Any takers? -- Mark A. ...uw-beaver!ssc-vax!adolph "Computers are like preppies: they just boil around in their own way and you have to do things their way or they blow you off."

I like the idea of a newsgroup for theatre buffs and would-be playwrights and actors. But I don't think that such a group should be a subdivision of net.rec, any more than net.movies should be. I propose net.theater; any takers?

Yes on net.theatre. An excellent idea! Bret Marquis -- Bang World Communication Center - San Diego.
