The Green Room / Re: One actor's performance divides a community
« on: May 20, 2012, 04:55 pm »
I was PM at a semi-professional theatre in San Francisco years ago. No union cast but everyone had a contract and got paid. One cast member was having an awful time remembering lines. By tech rehearsal, we had a meeting: cast, director, theatre staff and the cast member was let go from the show. The director steped in and took the role. The cast member who was releaved from the show actually was releaved: I remember he harbored no ill feelings and knew it was best for the show.
