Starting a Theater Company

They're all over the place, EVERYONE seems to have one, many seem to just disappear.

Upstart Theater Companies

Why?
Well, let's face it. We are in a business that requires us to be seen, and quite often, whether or not that happens depends on someone else. So...why not give yourself that control for a change?! Having your own theater company can certainly provide you a venue in which to showcase you and your colleague's talents.
Now, don't get me wrong - there's a lot I still don't know about this, but as I'm working with several at the moment....I have learned a few things.

1st step - be sure to surround yourself with people whom you admire and respect both personally and professionally. THIS IS A MUST. You are going to be spending a great deal of time with these people...think about it - do you want to spend time with those you DON'T admire or respect? Well, then...there it is.

2nd step - DO STUFF.
