"Division one creative team"? What do you mean?

[Jamiem]

the producer has written a book....

If you're implying the creative team isn't v good, these folks were behind last year's superb Journey's End. I have high hopes.

That's good

One of the most weird, wayout and unsubstantiated comments I have ever seen on any chatboard...

It's totally unfounded- by what basis do you call that creative team "division one"?

[Jamiem]

Do you think that David grindlay seats easily alongside Matthew warchus, nick hytner, rob ashford,
Stephen Daldry, Michael Grandage, Marianne Elliott, Thea sharrock and Rufus Norris

I'm old school so Division 1 to me is winning the league, I just about remember football as I know it before Sky ruined it... but that is a discussion for another board.

But the follow up post explains to a newbie like myself where you were going with your argument. Before, the statement on it's own, was just bizarre.

Fairly new theatre goer myself and think I have only seen one Grindley production which as someone stated above was the excellent Journeys End. All I can base the direction debate on. So when I saw the 'creative team' I did not have the same fears as you did.
