Our website i a lot better than it used to b. I started working on it late this past September. It's still going through growing pains. I'm still figuring out the best way to lay out information. Some information still isn't even there like volunteer and membership stuff.
So I want to see your masterpieces! They may give me tips on how to lay out the information is a better way.
BTW, I'm using Joomla 1.5 as the backend so if anyone else is using Joomla, please mention that.

I would have suggested checking out the "Community Theatre Links" page on THIS web site, but I see it is (at least temporarily) sans links. I created and maintain the web site for my home town community theatre (Marshalltown Community Theatre, which is 750 miles away from where I live - nobody knows where you park your car in cyberspace). It is rather basic, but still comprehensive and meticulously kept up to date. I try to make it emphasize the PEOPLE involved with the theatre so there are (voluntary) links to bios and headshots of many of the participants. I want visitors to go to the web site to find out what's going on at MCT, and I have excellent help from a lady in Marshalltown who sends me photos and info on a regular basis. I intend to "class it up" a bit just as soon as I figure out how to use SWiSH Max. Anyway, it can be experienced at http://www.MCTonline.org - www.MCTonline.org . Enjoy!
By the way, you wrote about your web site but didn't include an address. I want to see YOUR masterpiece, too!

Nothing amazing, we don't own a performing space (we usually work with schools and churches) but there's information about our production team and past productions.

Still working on ours, I'm also using Joomla. I'm using the default template which is working nice for me. I'm not graphically inclined so I haven't changed their default header graphic.

We have sort of been at the design mercy of whoever we get to be our current webmaster. Every time we change webmasters, the design of the website changes. Oh well!

This is to let everybody know that due to circumstances beyond our control the web site for THEATRICAL REALITY, INC. ( http://www.theatricalreality.biz - www.theatricalreality.biz ) has expired and will not be renewed. The web hosting service (?) HostOnce has ignored every attempt to get the domain name transferred to us so we were forced to acquire a new domain name ( http://www.theatricalreality.COM - www.theatricalreality.COM ) on a different hosting service. I post this notice to let everybody know we are still in business and just at a new Internet address. I would also strongly suggest you stay away from HostOnce as a hosting service. You might avoid the headache we're dealing with right now.

Does anyone use a wordpress template for their website. I know it's a blog template, but designers are going this route. I know Joomla can be easy to use, but I don't have design experience.

Joomla is very easy to use and you don't need design experience. I'm currently in the planning phase for our new website that I unfortunately put up last september due to our webmaster leaving the website in an unusable manner.
Oh and Spectrum....you should have known, it even says it in the name...HostONCE. One time and when it's over....it's over!

Both Wordpress and Joomla are easy to use. Joomla is a little more suited for overall content management, but Wordpress can be stretched into a CM like tool. I think you find plenty of resources and support for either.

We've now added some basic ticketing info on our web site and are slowly adding in previously recorded radio spots, critics quotes and rehearsal pics on some shows. We added a virtual tour and direct links to area restaurant web sites. We added an on-line survey and so far have had 47 surveys filled out that our marketing committee will look at. We've also having more people sign up and growing our e-mail list. We've had our new web site up for 3 months now and are tracking numbers closely. We've had 3,594 visitors, 46,003 page views, and 481,322 hits. I think our old site had 50 visitors total for a whole year and I was probably 30 of them! With our new site we've tried to make it fun, user friendly, hip, interactive and we're updating it on a regular basis.
