Hello All

Things are going fairly swimmingly but I'd like to use all of you as spies,
for a bit. When companies register their shows in The National Theatre
Calendar and Registry (NATHCARE) we ASK them to simply put a thank-you to us
in their program's thank-you section - just our address. They don't have to
pay us a dime. Now, although we suspect some are doing it, we don't know; so
we're asking you, the next time you're at the theatre, to check this out in
your program for us and to let us know what you find or do not find. It's
crucial as the calendar represents a lot of work and we want to know if the
companies are doing their small effort to reciprocate or if, in the future,
we will have to make it a requisite for inclusion in the calendar. Here's
the list of companies - in no particular order - which have used The
National Theatre Calendar and Registry (NATHCARE):
