Bakersfield, an incestuous land of dying theatre, too much theatre, or…? - By N.L. Belardes

Aaron Mauldin of Theatreaddict.com is trying like crazy to take a Bakersfield theatre scene and get his arms around it, digest it, and spin its balkanized incestuous soul into something digestible, easy to navigate, and worthy of perusal with real honest-to-goodness bodies in the seats.


A scene from Amadeus at the Spotlight theatre.
Just who is kissing who behind the scenes?

But are bodies going to local theatres? Are people even viewing his addiction website by the bushel loads?

Maybe. Maybe not.

I doubt if local thespian and high school theatre instructor Rob Long. A.K.A The Logic Bomb agrees, even though the not-so-controversial Mauldin posted Long’s myspace blog article, "Performer-Audience Rapport" that declares all forms of theatre are dying. The peaceful and fence-strattling Aaron could have put his own dastardly comment there that agreed or disagreed with Long. I wouldn’t have minded.

The theatre scene is already split apart like Baskin Robbins flavors, why not speak your mind?
