They do. Staged seating. Theatre lights, etc. I've watched many a concert there ...

Short answer to your dilema... find a few like minded souls to do photo walks, and drink a cup of coffee with and leave it at that. Just remember, if you miss a coffee meet up you might be elected president
(that's the on going joke with our group).
Yup, that's become my thinking.
I appreciate I might be about to tread on toes with this observation, so excuse me if I get modern terminology not 100%, but I do feel that the clubs I've investigated could do with a healthier "gender (?)" (see what I mean
) balance. When I sat high up at the back, I would amuse myself, especially when judges were rambling on, with counting the members, like me, who suffer from a less than perfect head of hair. I find that the majority of photographers I follow nowadays on Instagram tend to be woman. When I've discussed this with my wife it comes as no surprise to us. Competition can be such a turn off when not appropriate. Absolutely fine in sport (love that), but in photography/art? No.
