I'm not much into Facebook, visit my page once a week or so to check on updates from family and my nieces and nephew away at college. Seems to me the amount of interaction would be driven by the actor. Don't some post a lot and all the time, while others next to nothing. Clearly the former would be ok with more interaction. If they make themselves accessible, they may want to have dialogue. But I can see its a slippery slope, with some in society not understanding that boundaries still exist even with social media, that you appear to be a friend online but you are not in real life. I'm curious why you feel it's bad form to post about being at a particular performance? What's wrong with, "Looking forward to seeing you and the rest of the cast tonight!" or something like that? Yes, you wouldn't write, "I'll be gazing at you from C101 and I would so appreciate you waving at me during the curtain call," LOL
