Questions answered by Ibby O’Carroll.
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
We will stage several UFO sightings in various theatrical venues globally to boost interest in our touching alien invasion comedy, Last Laugh. We will begin on Broadway at a Wednesday matinee of Hamilton and end at our Fringe venue, Zoo Playground 3, with a massive PR activation.
Q2: Cancel culture has finally come for your show. What sins has it committed?
Is it still sodomy if you’ve never kissed? If a multi-year lesbian situationship is wrong, we don’t want to be right. Our show’s main sin is homoeroticism. Oh…… and also puppetry.
Q3: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?
Self care during an alien invasion is HARD! Our meditation app doesn’t have a setting for legit armageddon. Luckily, we’ve always found that the greatest self care is laughter in the form of improv comedy. Is it sophisticated? No. Will we quite literally survive? Who’s to say.
Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?
Climbing up to the roof – away from all these posers – to toke up, see the stars, and talk about how we’re all just ants on a floating rock, man.
