I think it's great that our community is supporting more and more theatre productions! You can never have enough entertainment when it comes to the fine arts!

And maybe everyone in the community should support all types of theatre!! Not just KVT because now they are not the only theatre in town. Maybe people in the community should be happy that there is MORE theatre! I THINK KVT and Warehouse Plyhouse should ban together to support the arts. That's what this should be about, furthering the arts... not about competition between two theatre groups......

I think anyone who has to use volgur language to express themself is nothing but a bully. I have seen shows at both theatre's. Both are equally good, whether they have been there one year or 43 years.

I just saw "Bus Stop" at Warehouse Playhouse this past weekend and it was hilarious and extremely entertaining. Also, I went to MASH by KVT last weekend and enjoyed it. I am estatic that there is more theatre in Kankakee County and we should support both. Keep up the good work!

WEll it's awesome you have 2 theatre groups!! it should give more people opportunities. Besides if one group has been around for 43 years they probaly have their "clicks" and cast the same people over and over and from what I see they do have the same directors over and over and over again. Warehouse has a great space. after 43 years why does the other theatre not have their own space?

i don't mean the Warehouse is bad i just mean there is all this hoopla about it and support like it's the only theatre in town.

But it's ok cause so far KVT has made shit loads of money from there first three shows of the season

i personally am glad the warehouse playhouse is around cause it gives a chance for smaller unknown shows to be produced

i just wanted to let tyler know that i support kvt as well, but sometimes change is good, and i think thats what they need. there are too many cliques and too many big heads in that organization to be downing anyone else.
