[Capdist-announce] Thespian Hotel Online Theatre Guide is Closed

[Thespian Hotel Webmaster]

The Thespian Hotel, the on-line Live Theatre Guide for Albany, NY and 
the Greater Capital District, is closed.

A message from the webmaster:

     The Thespian Hotel was started for the fun of it, and maybe to make 
a small amount of money if possible.  It was intended to provide a 
central location for all area theatre performance schedules and news.  
But it hasn't been able to build a large enough audience to justify its 
continued existence -- and so it's time to send it to that big bit 
bucket in the sky.   Perhaps a site redesign and improved marketing 
would increase the number of visitors, but due to other commitments, I 
no longer have the time or energy to invest.

     I have had a great time promoting and publicizing the wonderful 
live theatre offerings in Albany's greater Capital District.  I'd like 
to thank all of you who kept me updated with performance schedules, 
press releases, photos, and the occasional last minute update or 
correction.

     I have constantly been amazed at the number of terrific theatre 
groups and organizations, large and small, that our region supports.  So 
many people, amateur and professional, on stage and behind the scenes, 
offer outstanding performances in a wide variety of venues, to bring the 
drama, laughter, and joy of live theatre to our area.  You should all be 
proud of the outstanding and important  work you do.

     Break a leg.


Michael
