Sarah Tatersall: With its speak of using algorithms to connect people with the theatre they’ll love, the Stagedoor app caught my attention as a theatre lover who’s always seeking new ways to find shows and companies. The app — a scientific Tinder for theatre makers and lovers, if you will — lets users create a theatre journal of the shows they’ve seen, give ratings to promote what they love and receive updates recommending popular productions based on their network. In other words: Stagedoor, in a way, replicates word-of-mouth for the digital community.
