General Purposes:
The directory will be a location for the improv community to interact by sharing information and availability. Users can perform searches for venues and troupes that are seeking new performers (and vice versa). Contact information will be share to the extent that a user allows.
Performance information can be maintained by improvisers, venues and troupes such that the calendar will be perpetually up to date. Show additions will be automatically sent to kcstage.com, the Pitch, the KC Star web sites (if selected).
Directory information will be tied to forum profiles to the extent selected, providing a simple way of finding out who performs where, with whom, and when. This will also allow forum discussions to have direct links to troupe information, audition schedules, workshops, etc.
