So, for want of time, I discussed exactly nothing at the panel tonight. I did give a brief summary of our play, in between the summary from the guy whose all-under-24 group had restructured Richard III into a musical built around teen angst, and a guy who's doing a dance piece based on the work of the Beats. Mary, Matt, and Nate did give excellent, and extremely snappy, performances. Like lighting bolts! Audience never knew what hit 'em. Though they must have had some idea, because people asked for postcards afterwards.
Speaking of: more postcard-distribution solutions were found today! Picking up where we left off:
Solution #5: Steal a bunch of copies of the Village Voice from the bin. Insert a postcard in each one, facing the positive review of Lebanon. Return papers to bin. That's targeted marketing, right?
Solution #6: Wedge postcards into the frames of large liquor ads. We don't mind if you're drunk at the show, so long as you don't distract the actors. Or publish a review of the play afterwards.
Solution #7: Drop postcards into the baskets of parked bicycles. Certain types of baskets just scream "some disposable income!" and we're an excellent way to spend disposable income.
Solution #8: Duck into a Starbucks to get an Arnold Palmer after two hours of wandering around south of 14th St. in 90-degree weather sticking postcards in weird places. Place diminished stack of postcards on counter while rifling around for cash. Hear the magic words: "Is that a muppet with a gun?" Give postcards to baristas, who take notes on where to buy tickets. Consume Arnold Palmer and exit.
