Ephemeral, I mean.

Dyslexia is hip.

No, hipness IS important. Especially in Theatre, which lacks hipness in spades.

I think you're right in thinking you're wrong in believing that hipness & integrity are 2 opposing principles.

Hipness is emphemeral. SO IS THEATRE. Embrace it. Be hip.

Okay, thanks then.

Why am I reticent to be hip?

I think there is an unspoken understanding that there is a direct inverse relationship between hipness and artistic integrity. Which is possibly why so much of theatre is so boring maybe.

No irony. I think you guys are very sharp & on the ball.

Not to get all "us & them" with other companies, but other companies are ... less on the ball.

I can't decide if it's better if this praise is better if it is sardonic or not. Thanks, I think...

Maybe not too much thanks though (if this is indeed a sincere comment), as we have tried to be pretty adamant about not establishing an US and THEM mentality with our our our brother and sister companies in the T dot.

Got any objections/comments about the article?

You guys are right on, & SO HIP. Any hipper, and you'd have holsters hanging off of you.

The squareness of all other players in TO is unfathomable. I pity them.
