“As a member of the ITA, we serve the theatre. That’s what we do. We don’t negotiate. We don’t compete. We don’t compromise. We don’t apologize. We serve ourselves. Good theatre begets good theatre; so, the better the climate becomes for theatre in Illinois, the better things become for all of us – professionally, artistically, aesthetically.”
