[edit]

As the original contributor of the article, I question the addition of the Brisbane, Australia, production. I've seen five other stagings of "Sweet Eros," all done in the United States - should Wikipedia try to list every single production?

I included the Brisbane production (because I was in it) and also because it shows that the play is known and alive outside the US. Interestingly, I noticed that the most recent additions to this article list a whole bunch of new productions of the play - all of which are from the US.

Are only US productions of 'Sweet Eros' allowed in your article? If so why? The world doesn't begin on the US West Coast and end on the US East Coast - there are other peoples and other countries beyond your borders. And some of those people might want their creative efforts known about and recognised.

Original contributor again: What happened was a little complicated. The Brisbane production was deleted by someone apparently connected with the Madison, Wisconsin, production. And in trying to bring things up to date, I opted to bring in the Washington, D.C. and Austin, Texas, productions. I suppose I could have reincluded Brisbane, and maybe I still should. But there was a report of a production in Freiburg, Germany, from about a year ago, and several other productions in recent years in Chicago and Miami. I'm still trying to figure out where to draw the line.

Might I suggest therefore that an additional entry be made for 'Sweet Eros' - one that is a list of all known productions. The result would be two entries for 'SE' - this one which outlines the play and it's narrative, while the second seperate entry is the list of productions, both US and international.
