Theatre is expensive to go to. i certainly felt when i was growing up that theatre wasn't for us. theatre still has that stigma to it. a lot of people feel intimidated and underrepresented in theatre.
Growing Up People Theatre
...nameless, unknown to me as you were, i couldn't forget your voice!' 'for how long?' 'o - ever so long. days and days.' 'days and days! only days and days? o, the heart of a man! days and days!'
