Well, it seems I was right about the Augusta Ballet Company. I have it through the grapevine that the Augusta Ballet Board has voted itself a presenting company only. This only formalizes what I’ve suspected since the ‘reorganization’ several years ago. I can’t find a link in the Chronicle, or other local news outlets because, I’m certain, the board would prefer to have this decision be somewhat quiet.

Supporting Ballet is so much easier without those costly dancers and artsy fartsy types living, working, and paying taxes in the community.

I wrote a fairly pithy letter to the editor at the Metro Spirit. Recently, the 'Augusta Ballet', announced a party celebrating the retirement of their debt. The first sentence uses the weak construction, 'Some people say...' without telling us who are 'some people'. This is a celebration of what exactly? Below is my letter:

So, Tam and I have volunteered to be evil for The Pillowman at Le Chat Noir. I'm looking forward to it; especially since I don't have to talk. I'd like to do more acting if it weren't for the whole talking thing. I just finished reading the play. I would have to say that it is dark. So dark in fact, that I believe this should be the theme song.
