    Seriously - send us your info.

    This was LAST WEEK'S update:

    If we're supposed to send you a postcard or post a photo from one of the cities in which we're performing, we're going to need your information sooner rather than later at this point! We open in exactly two days (cue panicking... NOW!).

    Send me your address or photo request at my personal email (if you've got it) or at contact@badsoviethabits.org if you don't.

    See you at the show!

    This is THIS WEEK'S update:

    We opened LAST WEEK! I'm still trying to get the video footage together so that I can start thinking about editing together a DVD for the archives (and for the big backers - you know who you are!). Meantime, Andy jacked his shoulder in the OTHER show that he's in (that two-timing little...), so we're taking it easy in rehearsals this week.

    Last night we discussed, considered, and ran some possible press shots for the MN Fringe, thanks to our stage manager Kelly who's pretty handy with a camera, turns out. Tonight we work trouble spots (like that transition where I left the props on the opposite side of the stage from where Andy needed them).

    We've got TWO shows left in Milwaukee, and if you want a postcard FROM Milwaukee, you'd best get us your address ASAP. Contact@badsoviethabits.org is all you need.

    see you at the Fringes!

    Kurt

    Andy was driving. The Mac camera shoots in mirror image, so I was actually in the passenger seat. Special effects, baby.
