- This week on #CdnCult Times from SpiderWebShow: “Critics are ambassadors (like it or not) bringing theatre to the general public. What is their role in the changing media landscape?” Three perspectives from Jerry Wasserman, Eric Coates, and Michael Wheeler
- As you assess the success of your year-end donation campaign, ask yourself: Were you bothering your donors, or inspiring them?
- From Charity Village, exploring the question of “waiting but not idle”: how do you keep potential volunteers engaged with your theatre?
