Theater in town suggestion from Casio

Post by Guileless_one »

It has been suggested that a theater be erected for the sharing of tales, poetry,riddles, songs and the like. Although Popper's Rock has become the place for these activities, and fittingly so from his works I have had the pleasure of reading, it would seem more fitting for the new bards of this land to erect a theater in his honor. Suggestions as to the form it would take and how the building should be financed should be posted here. I would only say that it would be nice to remove the performances from the center of town where they are often cluttered by other conversations. All words are welcome here and I would have the theater be the same. As a bard, I feel that we have a unique opportunity to understand each other better through our poetry and song. I would only hope that if a theater is erected, we could set aside our differences and allow the drama to remain on stage within. :shock: I might also ask the builders or designers to create an everfull chest of tomatoes to be provided for critique of the truly poor performers. :lol: Please comment if even breifly as the feedback on this project due to its very nature within the community is essential. When in doubt as to the words you may choose, ask a bard, :wink: or you could just bump. :D

I think it's a good idea. Hence the vote.

I'll donate some money towards the building fund.

I contributed 1,000 gold coins to this noble effort. I challenge all other Darisites(?) to do the same.

You did indeed Holly, forgive me for not acknowledging your contribution. I, Casio, would hold the bag in a manner of speaking until a more seasoned bard or magistrate would step forward. Has anyone seen Bennie the Riddler? :shock:

I vote yes, because that poetry contest, which I judged, lags up the server. I vote that the theater should be on the Trades server.

I will gladly donate to the theatre, but only if it is spelt in the English way :D

Seriously though, being a L13 Bard I may be the most senior on the server but I'm not sure - I have only met one other bard on my travels. This may be because I am out and about at a different time from the rest of you.

I am not so much of a storyteller myself (although do occasionally have a stab at some serious poetry or some limericks), I prefer to collect other people's tales and keep them for posterity so I guess that makes me a librarian! However, I do take the role of entertaining the troups seriously hence my many outfits and frequent dancing around the village centre. I think other people may well appreciate this being taken elsewhere. Many monks, dwarves and paladins have demanded I be removed from temptation/their sight immediately! :oops:

OOC: I do have NWN toolset experience so may well be able to help build the theatre if you need these skills. Please PM me should you require any input.

I do approve of it..but I have one requirement for my vote of yes..and the requirement is that the theatre is not on the same map as the actual village. It's already laggy..perhaps underneathe the Druid Hill, or the trades?

I think the Theatre is a fine idea....I vote yes, however I do think that the Seaside would be a glorious place for it. I shall give my donation to Casio asap.

I think that the theatre is a grand idea my dear Casio. I too have a donation I will be giving you. I do not agree with putting the theatre in the trades server, but I do think the Seaside would be a good place for it. That way the town won't be lagged as it has been.

I am new to this land, but I would like to cast my vote in favor of such an establishment. The arts can provide a much needed distraction from the rigors of battle and daily life in these lands. Blood and battle can wear on the heart and mind, and it is good to be reminded that there are more peaceful and rewarding things to look forward too.
