I suppose if anything, I should be grateful. Being here means that I have an excuse not to see the Ember Island Players this year. I hope that none of you are that bad at acting.

The what now?

[flamesofazure]

Ember Island Players are a group of performers back home. They cannot act to save their lives.

[Voice]

[meteorical]

Then why are they acting?

[Voice]

[flamesofazure]

Because people will still go to see them. Bored nobles who attempt to entertain their annoying children. Or people who just do not know the good forms of arts.

[spiderphile]

You sure they're really that horrible? ... I mean, unless they overact and get the characters completely wrong, they shouldn't be terrible.

[flamesofazure]

You've already discovered the atrocity by stating how they could be horrible.

[spiderphile]

Ouch. No wonder you didn't want to see the plays in your world. If I could, I would totally take you to Broadway to show you how it should be done.

[flamesofazure]

Broadway?

[stilldontgotit]

If they're so bad, then why'd you go see them in the first place?

[flamesofazure]

My Mother.

[stilldontgotit]

Sounds like she had poor taste in acting, then. Just how bad were they?

[flamesofazure]

Let us just say that they couldn't do a proper love story and most of the audience fell asleep.

...

In Gensokyo, we lacked a proper troupe at all, and therefore went a more "community theater" route. The results, I'm certain, aren't that much better.

Mm. Sadly the Fire Nation is too large for such a small country thing.

Thought I do recall, in the days of my youth, attending a few plays in Paris before the Germans occupied it...

itp: AZULA LEARNS ABOUT NAZIS?!

[flamesofazure]

An occupation? Clearly then your people were not strong enough to hold the forces of these "Germans" back.
