Only thing I would like to see is "Value for Theatres" and not just "Value for Senior Theatres."
I never have gotten into genre theatres, but I know there is a value to them for whatever reasons.
I would hate to see King Lear or The Gin Game or On Golden Pond or Cold Storage or The Master Builder or Trip to Bountiful or Duck Variations etc. et al, being considered only for Senior Theatre. The broader the market the better no matter what the theatre target audience is. It would be great to consider what would bring young audiences into a play with senior, or as a friend of mine says, "plays with well-seasoned characters" into a theatre.
Is "Long Day's Journey..." only for Irish audiences? Is All My Sons or Death of a Salesman or Fiddler on the Roof..."only for Jewish audiences? Is Cherry Orchard only for Russian audiences?
You get my drift...
best,
