So, just to extend the debate around Quanta itself a bit further ...
make the effort to attend a local sub-group, where you can.
I organise the London Quanta Group ... and we just get on with it. A few members can keep things going. Non-attenders don't ... :-)
I did think of extending the Quanta debate to subgroups, particularly as London has such a successful one. If my memory is good, members pay an extra subscription to be a member of the London sub group and they would not do that if it was not worth going to.
People complain about the stairs and the lack of parking when you run a London show. What most do not realise is that the London Workshops are the only ones that are not financed by Quanta centrally.
You have some magic there in London - what is it?
In fact we know very little about sub groups in general and I suspect several are inactive, but others are thriving. But what do they do other than organise the occasional show? Surely some have interesting projects which would provide an article for the magazine.
I believe the Manchester Sub-Group sits around and listens to Judy Garland records with the occasional burst of excitement when Elvis has been sighted in the Trafford Centre ;-).
If I have a slightly wrong impression of their activities, perhaps they could tell us what they really do,
Best Wishes,
Geoff
