The concept of theaters in close proximity to each other working together to achieve a common goal of providing theater to the populace and challenging themselves artistically is a really good one. Like our professors keep telling us, theater is a collaborative art, why not take the collaboration further than the show itself, further than the organization even to the larger industry. In the theater world where everyone is constantly moving about working with new people and making good contacts, it doesn't seem like this would be too hard. Individual theaters have many resources that they can share with others without hurting their own season or line up. In addition, together, they may be able to accomplish things that a single organization will not be able to handle. This is a great opportunity to increase audience size as theaters work to pool their resources.
