    In the 1970's The National did a production of 'Volpone'. I remember one of the staff - in an interview - proudly saying that the two brass handles on a decorative wooden prop, cost £100 each. We at The Almost Free Theatre, at the time, were putting on shows where our entire budget was £100. Gary Blair rightly points out that most theatres around the country have been recycling for years. The rather po-faced members of the National staff speaking now about recycling, and being less wasteful - as if they will now lead the way - is a bit rich! (Norman Coates)

      There has been a long term gap between the haves and have-nots. At least they are finally seeing and joining the bigger picture!! Some of us are aware of the back story xxx

    This is a great ethos... however, most theatre companies have been doing this for years, out of necessity.

    Well done. Improvement is better than maintaining the status quo. That said '50% has had a previous life' and '65% will have an afterlife' are weak goals. You can do better. Use your funding to invest in people over materials and those people will get you to 90% on both counts. Regarding '65% will have an afterlife,' which shows will those bits be used on? If the afterlife isn't planned when you buy/build it, don't include it in your stats. To be clear, I support you, NT. I just see that you're aiming very low.
