Hi John,

I strongly disagree with your decision to relegate auditions to be listed
online only.  At most, the audition listing occupied a quarter of the page
in the past.  That's hardly of phone book magnitude.  And if we follow the
"logic" that since most people have a computer there's no need to include
audition listings in the newspaper, then why do we need to read and
subscribe to a newspaper since we can just go online and get the same info?
It's a bad move.

Subject: Re: Theater listings disappeared???

Dear Mr. Oswald:

There will be theater listings; the fact that there weren't any in the first
issue was simply a production error.

In fact, there is more theater content every week, because Tony Brown is
writing a column devoted to local theater. It was our decision, however,
that we had to move away from making the magazine like a phone book of
listings and add some content for general readers. For that reason,
auditions will now be online only.

I hope you'll keep reading each week, and give our new look, and the loads
of new content, a chance to win you over.
