- ... and spectator who are constantly aware of each other and the theatre’s level of engagement is fundamentally more human and more intimate.

- ... Moon, has recently criticised Australia's level of IT skills. She stated that "companies need to train unskilled workers themselves rather than wait for university graduates to filter into the workplace" (Warning on IT skills crisis, Herald-Sun August 10th, 1999), otherwise we face an IT skills shortage.
