A Fringe Quickie (#125) with ‘Adults Only Magic Show /Showmen Productions’

Questions answered by Sam Hume.

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

Stand in George Square Gardens whispering “do you like sexy magic?” at tourists until someone makes eye contact.

Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?

A nice scotch, a pint, and something with a filthy name that it orders loudly to become the centre of attention.

Q3: If you brought this show home for the holidays, how would your parents react to them?

Mum would say she’s proud but ask why it has to be “so naughty.” Dad would pretend to be horrified, then laugh at every joke and ask if Richard’s abs are contractually required (they are btw).

Q4: How will the audience remember you the morning after?

I imagine the same way they wake up after a night of making hilarious bad decisions that they would absolutely make again – wildly fun yet strangely wholesome.
