So, we had the close of the first rainy week of the Fringe, with utter miserableness and general crowds that were lower than we hoped and, while we had some good shows, we weren't all feeling great about it (except Andy, who feels great about everthything, mostly cause of the drugs) and then today happened.
Today was great.
We may have mentioned that the reviewer for the Scotsman gave us two five star reviews, however, today the reviews came out. It was one thing to hear we were going to get one, and another to actually see it on paper. To add joysult to joyjury, a guy from BBC 2's Culture Show is coming to see us tonight, and we have three reviewers from Total Theatre Awards in as well. The audience numbers took a signifigant rise with the review coming out, and today I think I can speak for us all when I say we felt like Rock Stars.
We were also at an interview with Jim Rose (formerly of Jim Rose's Circus Sideshow, the 90's cult phenom), and he and I had a long conversation about William Burroughs shirts and how he's dead (Burroughs, not Rose). It was pretty sweet.
And while I still contend that reviews are a flawed system where the tastes of many rely on the sheerly subjective opinions of a few, damn if it didn't feel good to be on the five star side.
Tonight, more obnoxious party pics that were a lot better if you were there!
