So, I have had the pleasure of performing three times with Three Cat Media. On Thursday, I did a special event entitled, “This Day in History”. It was clever and had a lot of promise. The shows there are very impromptu and exciting. You never know what to expect. There isn’t any rehearsal and you really are flying by the seat of your pants. It’s a great skill for a performer. To just get up there and wing it and not fall on your face or to, heaven forbid, crash and burn; they are both important lessons in your theatrical training. Cause it isn’t the end of the world if it does blow. Most of the time, you are much harder on yourself than the audience ever is.
Here is the problem…no one comes and see them! They are cheap, they are nice and short, and it is not that far from downtown, each show has about 5 people in it…and still no audience. It is so frustrating. I feel so bad for the producers. The fella and I have really tried to support the other shows (one’s I am not involved with) there and sometimes we are two of 7 people in the audience. If you have any ideas on how to spread the word, please let me know!
