INFESTED!!!!

Well, "Bedbugs!!!" opened as part of the NYMF (New York Musical Theater Festival) on Tuesday, Sept. 16, 2008. It was a HUGE success. We were told that of the shows in the festival, we were in the best shape tech-wise (which is a huge compliment considering our only day IN the theater to do a run-through WITH lights, sound, and set was the earlier part of the opening day)!

The audience reaction has been incredible. The performances are uniformly excellent, if I do say so myself. EVERYONE in this show is intelligent, skillful, and giving as an actor. The singing is probably the best you will hear from leads in a musical in town. I'm not kidding (and those of you, who know me well, know how critical I can be of myself and others).

We have only 6 more performances left. 2 of those were added as extensions because the rest are sold out. Go to the homepage of my website, and follow the link to buy tickets - NOW.

The show has legs. People have sent me emails after seeing the show saying things like, "I haven't laughed that hard since I saw Urinetown," & "that show made me happier than anything I have seen in years." It goes on... but it goes without saying that the show will move... and I will have to resign myself to being the heir-apparent to Charles Busch... at least in part ;) I ain't giving up my man-side that easily!! lol
