Now I've been awful proud of the big shows we've put on in the last year. And I well up a little thinking about how brilliant the performers were in Uke-y Stardust and Purple Rain - When Ukes Cry. From soup to nuts I am proud that these inspired mad geniuses would work with me.
But this Tom Waits show is the best I've ever been involved in. I could tell you that it was due to the brilliant performances. Or I could say that it was the inspired staging. Or the wonderful audience who were willing to go there with us so completely. Or the many tentacled Jessica who held it all together when it would've unraveled in less expert hands. I could tell you all those things and they would all be partially true. But, frankly, it was just magic. God damned magic.
We're gonna do it again! Two nights! Please come and be with us. Will ya?
And for those of you who didn't get in (and, woah, we're super sorry. That's not a situation that has ever really occurred to any of us before!) and for those of you who want to make SURE to get in, advanced tickets are available this time!
Here's the skinny from the impresarios...
That's right! Due to popular demand, New Dates have been booked for an Encore Performance of...
