He noted that recently the situation has become even more complicated and is noticeably worsening the work of the theater group.
“I mean the frantic number of requests from parent communities and teachers of various educational institutions of the city and region regarding the holding of various photo sessions for graduation albums in the theater halls,” he wrote. “There are more and more such requests, they have become daily, and sometimes everything comes to the point that, without any prior notice, approval or warning, people from the regions of the region come to us with the words: “But we came because we were told that you can take a photo.”
According to Pedoruk, this looks “absurd and unethical.”
“We are forced to interrupt rehearsals, violate our production schedules and actually provide “photo salon” services. Therefore, we are forced to publicly announce that the Sadovsky Theater does not provide services for photo sessions in the theater premises,” he emphasized.
The position of the theater director sparked a debate online.
“Did the children study in the theater? The best photo shoot is within the walls of the school. A photo shoot in the theater for their graduation album is complete nonsense,” they wrote in the comments.
“What if you pay rent? Of course, at a decent price. How many people want it will disappear immediately,” they suggested on the network.
In response, Pedoruk stated that they tried to introduce payment for rent, but regretted it, since there were several groups of people willing to do so per day.
“In this case, you can forget about the true activities of the theater and replace the sign with “Photo Salon,” he emphasized.
