Off-Off Broadway

It's an interesting dilemma, Off-Off Broadway. On some levels, its where all the good work is done. All the experimental work in New York, where you can spend a relatively (relatively) low sum of money and see things in action. On another hand, the audience is becoming minute.

Increasingly, Off-Off is saturated by other actors, close-friends and the occasionally curious. But rarely do those without some vested interest in the event show up just to be enlivened or entertained.

So the question becomes... are we a tree falling in the forest that no one heard?
