This is probably a question more suited for those who work part time in the community theatre/amateur theatre circuit. How do some of you feel when a show you worked on has been reviewed (either professionally or through your network of friends/acquaintances)? Especially negative reviews and opinions?
I recently read a very neutral review about a show I LD'd on. Lighting was mentioned - overall well-received though the reviewer did have some issues with the skill of the followspot operators. As the way this facility operates, that portion is largely out of my hands so I don't feel one way or the other about it, but I have noticed a trend of this particular venue cranking out some mediocre shows lately (or at least the ones I've been called in on).
Can be a little discouraging. What do you all think?
