HOW HEFNERIAN! This Friday! For free! With wine!

[thehefner]

So! Free read-thru of THE HEFNER MONOLOGUES: HOW HEFNERIAN this Friday Friday Friday at tommx's place. It's BYOB, but I'll be providing a 1.5L bottle of Yellow Tail Cabernet Sauvignon for all. The show starts at 8ish, so arrive around 7:30ish? Yeah, that'll work.

I'm wondering whether or not to ask folks to take notes during the show. On one hand, the notes y'all did last time were *incredibly* helpful. On the other hand, there's nothing quite as off-throwing as seeing people start scribbling in reaction to something I did on stage. Either way, save enough of the wine for me.

Lemme know if you're interested and I'll hook you up with the address, and if needed, directions.

1. I would so love to go, but I'm not sure I'm invited.

2. WHO IS THAT HANDSOME MAN IN YOUR ICON I VAGUELY RECOGNISE HIM IT'S DRIVING ME MAAAAAD. MAD I TELL YOU.

You are! This LJ dealie is an open invite! But can you make it down to Silver Spring?

That--and this!--would be Kenneth Branagh, in full angsty Danish Prince mode!

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

I have no idea where Silver Spring is, but I figured I could get the address and figure out whether or not we could go based on that.

Aha! That's why I didn't recognise him--despite my best efforts, I haven't seen Hamlet yet.

I have been instructed to ask if there will be food. Food is, apparently, the deciding factor.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

I fear just snacky stuff. Chips and whatnot.

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

H'm. I don't think we're coming, then. :( However! There is always a next time! ;)

Aw, don't worry about it! Honestly, this is gonna be rather rough, a totally informal thingie, and I'd much rather your first impression of me performing be on stage in its full, polished form!

I still hate the fact that my ex-girlfriend only ever saw me perform once, and it happened to be in the worst play I've been in to date.

[mellifluous-ink.livejournal.com]

Well, I look forward to seeing you--I love stand-up. A lot. :D Also I love hanging about with theatre kids. They're the most fun. Which is, incidentally, why I'm going to have a go at being one.

Relax. They're probably writing down something like, "Good one. That one was funny - keep it." Or maybe, "Wouldn't it be cool if you put flying monkeys in this part of the show?"

Okay, that's what I'd write if I were there.

Remember, disdain for the audience. It's very important.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Yeah, tell me what you think, you unwashed heathens. Yes, write, keep writing your idiotic little notes to show just how you don't understand my brilliance OH GOD LOVE ME.

[tragical-mirth.livejournal.com]

That's a start!

Good choice of Wine Hef...and I am a wee bit in awe that you guys can buy them in 1 and half litre bottles!!!!!!!!!
You Yanks with your pinstripe stockings and bubble gum and now this.

Good luck with the performance, I will be there in spirit and waiting for the inevitable DVD (you really should do one "Print on demand")
I simply must see you perform

In America, even our Australian wine comes in family-sized!

I dare say I'll be ready to shoot to Edinburgh by next year! I hadn't actually thought of that till just now. I should try for it! It'd be grand to have you in my audience!

I would actually be there with Killians but I have a graduation BBQ that evening. Sorry.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

You raised my hopes and dashed them quite expertly, sir! Bravo!

Welcome to my mom's world.
