A Fringe Quickie (#281) with ‘BURN’

Questions answered by Frankie Hyde.

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

Blood, sweat, tears… deep embarrassment… foregoing all shame… You know, the usual…

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

A Bloody Mary (natch)… But she might throw it in your face…

Q3: Cancel culture has finally come for your show. What sins has it committed?

Treason against the crown, intrigue against the queen to prevent her accession to the throne, and heresy. A Holy Trinity of Crimes! (IYKYK)

Q4: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?

Tea (Lucy), coffee (Kirsty), alcohol (Frankie)… OUR Holy Trinity of Crimes
