O to 60 in under three seconds


So I was blown away that he was asking me if we were able to book him in other cities and said he'd be ready by April- just three months away because three months is the bare, bare minimum of PR I would put into any theater booking, let alone something like this.  After I sent the email I thought, oh boy, you just threw a bunch of  detailed questions at him, should have just laid back, now you won't hear from him for a while.  But then he answered right back with this wonderful answer.




Quick response to your wonderful email- where?, everywhere. where first? 
the spots where theatre is most appreciated? How many performances? I am 
creating 2 separate evenings - sweet and sour. And on the short side, no 
intermission. Then for special events or houses or as the 
spirit moves me, I do both on a night with an intermission. 
this way we exploit the body of the community who really only wants
their funny bone tickled, and for the serious audience, 
his tougher more yearning soul is revealed. I would liketo run the piece
in each city long enought to be missed when I'm gone and short enought 
that the energy is still buzzing before the show starts. I have I am 
proud to say, never experienced a failure on stage and since high school
, almost always figure out a way to get the house on their feet. 
Even "THE 10 COMMANDMENTS".... GOLLY.
