Why You Need It
Your theatre’s social media should be a place where audiences feel excited to engage, not where volunteers spend hours deleting spam and inappropriate comments.
Whether you’re promoting auditions, announcing a cast, selling tickets, or celebrating opening night, public comment sections can quickly become cluttered with profanity, spam, fake ticket sellers, and other unwanted interactions.
The Theatre Social Media Block List gives you a head start by providing a curated collection of words and phrases you can use with many social media moderation tools.
