Questions answered by Eva Seymour.
Q1: Aside from this Quickie, what is the most desperate marketing tactic you plan on using to get bums in seats this August? 280 chars
I will be flyering in a cockroach costume, to convey my determination to outlast, outwit and outplay all other lifeforms vying for audience attention. Also because my actual show costume is in no way visually striking and one MUST stand out.
Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?
10 wet pussy shots, which it then offers around to strangers at the bar, asking if they’d like to see its showreel and if anyone has heard of any gigs coming up.
Q3: If you brought this show home for the holidays, how would your parents react to them?
“Darling, we want you to be happy, but we’re concerned about the relentless chanting we keep hearing from the courtyard at 1:42am every night. She’s a lovely girl but she seems to be quite actively evoking malevolent forces and we’re worried about how it might impact Christmas”
Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?
My show has bailed up a guy she met at another house party a couple of years back, asking him if he’s read Attached yet and is he aware of his avoidant tendencies? Also, do you have any spare beers?
