Chris Dykes' love of musical theatre is apparently older than his memory of it, as Mom insists that he sat in awed attention while watching Hello, Dolly! at the age of 3. He does recall begging his parents for repeated movie outings to see The Sound of Music, Thoroughly Modern Millie, and Mary Poppins, and although this Julie Andrews fixation.-complete with attempts to fly by means of an umbrella held over the air conditioning unit.-eventually ran it's course (in college), his love of Broadway and film musicals has never wavered. Chris is a 20-year resident of Austin, Texas where he has donated many hours to the non-profit Austin Circle of Theatres and is currently risking heat stroke to train for the Chicago marathon. His master's degree in clinical psychology rarely comes in handy at Dell where he works as a software project manager. He has enjoyed volunteering in various capacities for Broadwayworld.com since shortly after its launch in 2003.

How do you feel about charities and foundations dedicated to nurturing theatre granting large cash awards to well established writers who already make a living through their art? 4 comments
Fine. It’s their money so let them give it to whoever they want.
If they really want to support the theatre they should give the money to talented writers who need to spend time at other jobs to make a living.
Honoring established playwrights is fine, but the honoree should use the money to help talented unknowns.
