Changes

Artistic Director Section

While it's good to include some biographical information on the artistic director, should all this be on the article for the Pasadena Playhouse? I don't know. And I saw the tag about it not being sourced enough but I'm finding it incredibly difficult to get anything concrete about his accomplishments and any sort of true biographical info on him.

To reply to all of your posts: If you can't find any verification through reliable, third party sources then just cut all the cruft out. A small(er) article that only has information found elsewhere (what Wikipedia's goal is) is much better than an article with lots of information that no one can confirm. If it can't be sourced; cut it. :-) Btw, I love the picture I found for this page. Killiondude (talk) 06:24, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply! I'll search around a little more and if I can't find it just get rid of it. That picture is great! What about the tags though? How do I get rid of them? Or get the article reassessed for content? JeffyCreel (talk) 19:17, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Be bold. The tags in the text you can delete or modify as you see fit. You can even reassess the article yourself. Or if you don't feel so bold, you can ask on the project talk pages: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject California. --Stepheng3 (talk) 22:37, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Co-founder

The article about Maudie Prickett has it, that her first husband Charles Fillmore Prickett II (1901–1954) was the co-founder and general manager of the Pasadena Playhouse. -Mardus /talk 07:12, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hackman and Hoffman

Don’t you want to write about how they rejected Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman, telling them that they will accomplish nothing? 188.6.216.207 (talk) 05:02, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, just Hackman

I’ve added the previous topic (Hackman & Hoffman) and sorry for the mistake, so it was only Hackman who got fired, also he met some rude teacher later and that idiot told Hackman that he will accomplish nothing. (IMDb) 188.6.216.207 (talk) 05:14, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

College Notes

If anyone feels like beefing up the mention of the college (possibly adding in its own section) in the article, here are a few links to note:

The 1975 National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form [1] is an interesting resource to start with a deep dive. There's a handy bibliography on page 16.
There is an active alumni website. [2] There are a lot of newsletters to wade through and some contact information.
See the About / The College section on the Playhouse website. [3]
Not sure if this is very informative, but there is a mention on the L.A. Conservatory website. [4]
Somewhere (I can't recall where), someone stated that the Pasadena Playhouse College of Theatre Arts was second only to the Julliard School in the way of degree programs specifically for theatrical arts. That is worth exploring a bit more.
