I toured the theatre, looked out from the balcony, breathed in the backstage and the dressing room mirrors
and
I am...
actually doing this!*
So, please do this with me.
Visit the official Listen To Your Mother Show website, watch last year's performance on video, follow @LTYMshow on Twitter and Facebook and consider auditioning your original piece in Madison, Spokane, L.A., Austin, or with me here in Valparaiso (dates just announced)!
May I?
[bows with gratitude]
*edited to add... please click on the link! I am the director & producer of Listen To Your Mother in Valparaiso. And yes, emcee'ing and reading, too. Wooo!

That is so cool!!

ReplyDeleteWhen you start selling tickets and other publicity efforts, drop me a line. I write for Visit Indiana's blog, Indiana Insider. Would love to write something on this in April. arrowssentforth at gmail dot com

ReplyDeleteCongrats! (I am excited for you).
ReplyDeleteI'm also still a little confused about what it is. Is it like a poetry reading? Are there prizes? Is it open to the public? Who is typically in the audience? (Etc.).
