Dear Violet and Mattie Fae, we understand that you like to control things and that you’re exceedingly stubborn, but rather than keeping union actors out of 99-seat theaters, where nobody makes any money and people try to make art, wouldn’t your efforts be more in keeping with the traditions and ideals of your union to get your actors into the Pantages? Why do you keep picking on Little Charlie, instead? Because the unemployment figures within your own union demonstrate that whatever it is you’ve been doing all these years simply hasn’t been working.
