A Fringe Quickie (#264) with ‘Roomies’

Questions answered by Julia Stephens.

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 dressed as an elaborate “it-girl” every day for an entire month. I deeply envy your sweatshirt and jeans.

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

A glass of veuve cliquot, a vodka redbull, and a pack of cigarettes for chain smoking. In that order.

Q3: We all have weird pre-performance rituals. What is yours, and how confused would a normal person be if they walked in on you doing it?

Nonsensical tongue twisters that would make one think I’m schizophrenic myself.

Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?

The party was absolute garbage until she walked in.
