I’m not involved in theater other than as an audience member. But after seeing Scott Harrison’s brilliant production, Creating a Scene (in a Restaurant), situated among the diners at Second Street Brewery, I decided to attend the first Theatre Artist Salon, an interview of Harrison by Theater Grottesco Artistic Director John Flax. It was an interesting look behind the curtain of the creative process in general, and the challenges of the Creating a Scene production in particular.
A Theatre Artists Salon seems like a great idea and I look forward to more. It seems like it will be a terrific vehicle to bridge both audience and artists, to learn more about the importance of theatre in general, and to focus on our local theatre scene in a bright way.
