I was a member of Defiant Theatre from 1997 to 2003. I served as its Marketing Manager for several of those years. While my motivations for creating this article are selfish (to preserve the memory of a company that brought me years of fulfillment), my aim is to keep this in the spirit of Wikipedia as a piece of human knowledge and not as an emotional, unbiased memoriam. I have called upon the 30+ members of the company to contribute, and I hope that they will. — Arloguthrie 16:15, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
