Tacky

Tacky.

That's the best way to describe a production company that will do something like this.

Here's the scenario:

You are an experienced, professional actor and you audition for a stage production but you are not cast, or you submit for an audition but are not even selected.

In the meantime, the production company adds your email address to their database and sends you a series of marketing emails to attend their show with a "special offer" of discount tickets.

This begs the question: if I wasn't cast in your production or you wouldn't even give me a chance to audition, why in the world would I pay to see your show?
