One Producer in the City

And the winner is...

Well the Purple Contest ended up being a lot of fun and after much deliberating we finally chose a winner.

Tom Atkins idea about doing theatre testing the way that films do screen testing really resonated with our judges so he was the judges pick!

Tom, be sure to send me your address so I can send your book and gift card your way.

An honorable mention also goes out to Will Segal for his Rap musical concept.

Thanks to all who participated and let me know if you'd like me to run more contests in the future.

Excelsior!

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something Purple?

So last night I had a really great PLAE class and I gave a very challenging assignment.

So I thought I'd give all of you the same assignment.

It's Tuesday. I didn't see any Fringe shows yesterday, and this could be fun.
