Please inform me of any protest activity. As a Mind user and former student of Anna's I would be happy to help in any way. Anna Scher formed the original theatre school because of the death of my brother, giving myself and my sister an outlet for our grief. She was the kindest of people back then in 1968 and I would help in any way I can.

A major demonstration will be taking place on the junction of Barnsbury Road and Copenhagen Street on Friday 14th January 2005 where those remaining relics on the board are holding an emergency meeting to remove both Anna Scher and Charles Verral from the board entirely.

Large scale organisations such as Mind UK service users will be turning up to add their voices to the many supporters of Anna Scher and we hope our friends at Mad Pride and all the samba bands show up to make as much noise as possible and if those of us who really want Anna back in the theatre where she belongs then we shall invade the meeting and disrupt the goings on until everything is done and scrutinised by the public.

Firstly let me ask those who constantly post up articles concerning Anna Scher using my name (Patrick McCrudden) in articles or with the intent to cause trouble, please refrain from doing so in the future as I'm having nothing whatsoever to do with any demonstration on Friday 14th January 2005 outside the theatree or anywhere else in Islington unless I'm paid an enormous fee for doing so.
I overheard a conversation in the pub last Friday giving it large yet where were you when this all started?

To the young lady who said she was only in Anna's class to get on Eastenders, well your more likely to get in Eastenders if you go to a class where there are agents on site rather than in a class where no agent exists at all.
There has also been some of you who feel that Anna isn't actually interested in the theatre at all on Barnsbury Road but getting our money to visit her friends around the world like ole Dessie Tutu.

Finally, I'm not going to be used in a battle between Anna Scher and the board of trustees, Anna was advised as to how to proceed in her campaign and didn't want to listen to a word of it as was well viewed by many in her class last Friday night, I have no faith in any demonstration outside the theatre or anywhere else and if anyone can then please explain what anyone will achieve by protesting against the board when the result will remain the same (Anna Scher and Co will be suspended from the board) so all those to stupid to realise what a section 1/8a is when it comes to company law then go down to Companies House and check out what Articles of Association is?

If those of you out there can't put your own names to postings then don't put mine or you'll be the one's being heckled not the board.

What's wrong with all you people attending a class and paying a fiver to listen to the same old story every single week concerning the former Anna Scher Theatre in Islington, then listening to all the religious stuff which won't turn you into an actor but might turn you into one of those religious fanatics shouting on the streets, holding a bible putting fear into passers by when shouting "Turn to the Lord or you'll forever be in the firery pits of hell" LEAVE IT OUT!

Those of you who are on the verge of wising up to whats going on around you in the exiled class may well think that paying a fiver to do less than 2 minutes on an impro just isn't worth the money and so to those of you wanting a change to something where you'll have the oppertunity of joining an agency and a class where you'll learn all the things you need to learn about being an actor you should email  whistleblower2005@myway.com for further details on proper classes and leave behind both the exiled class and the main theatre on Barnsbury Road for something better.

Interested in becoming an actor?

Then email  whistleblower2005@myway.com and you'll be set up with a proper class this time next week.
