what to do, what to do????
So "someone i know" is choreographing a show... i'm friends with one of the leads of that show and he's giving me a daily earful of bad feedback of the choreography/choreographer. I feel that my friends feedback is honest and on target. I know that "SIK's" big goal is to be a choreographer, but from what I'm hearing, his reputation is quickly detereorating.
Do i say something? Or do I just watch "SIKs" dream die?

So...I think you have to let SIK sink or swim on their own. Just be supportive either way, and if you're asked for help/advice, then give it. If not, shaddup. Dreams are touchy things, and there's nothing sadder than realizing it's not gonna happen. So do all this with great empathy, i.e. put yourself in SIK's place.
Excellent call. Excellent call. The tough part is that I can fix the issues, but "SIK" won't ask for my help.
I put myself in SIKs place and I'm not so sure I'd ask for help either... this is so hard!
Even tougher is knowing from the start that SIKs dream was tenuous at best. It could happen, but only if SIK took class on a regular basis from a variety of teachers, had more experience as a PERFORMER under his belt and exposed himself more to GOOD theater...
It's hard when you want something for the people that are close to you, you can see what's in the way, but you can't do anything about it!
I think you should say something...but that's coming from someone who's a bit jaded about the whole showbiz thing. NY is a different ball of wax. Maybe you should let the dream live itself out.
I didn't mean for that to be anonymous...this is Sara, obviously.
