Hey Robert,

I think that was essentially what I was trying to say in my one liner. My
feelings exactly. I didn't read arrogance, I read deserved pride.

The phrase I've heard and adopted lately is "human" theatre rather than
"live" theatre or "legitimate".

What I learned at UConn, and believe fervently, is that you shouldn't do
with puppets what actors can do better, and you shouldn't do with actors
what puppets can do better. It's all theatre.

My 3 cents (inflation dontcha know)

Karen Larsen
