To whom it may concern,

I've owned and operated a theater company for over ten years and most every  
actor I've employed was a professional.  And when I say professional it has  
NOTHING to do with any association of the actors union.  It's about having  
pride in your craft and coming to the show with the attitude of giving it your  
all.  Ones ability is what makes them a professional, not a union  card.  

And I am in no means downing union actors but in truth, that union card and  
a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee.  Maybe in New York it means  everything 
but just because a person in Cleveland doesn't have a card does not  deem 
them non professional by any stretch.  

I'll gladly stand by that statement 100% because the actors that currently  
are employed by the PROFESSIONAL theater company, M.O.B. INC. are nothing short 
 of professional.
Quite frankly, I couldn't be happier with their professional acting that  
they bring to the stage each and every time they perform. And isn't  being a 
professional more valid then a card saying you  are?
Sincerely,
W.J. Malbasa
President of M.O.B. INC.
