Questions answered by Elliot Bibby.
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 have two children, so I’m highly trained in making unreasonable pitches to exhausted people. Fringe goers on the Royal Mile don’t stand a chance.
Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?
Some hot water please. So I can warm this milk up.
Q3: The Fringe is horribly expensive. How are you financing this run? Did you remortgage your house, sell your granny, or start an illicit side hustle?
I’ve dipped into the kids inheritance fund. If the show’s a hit, then the way I see it, is it’s an investment. If it flops, at least they’ll understand why Dad became a magician in the first place.
Q4: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?
As a Dad, I’ve learnt that if you can drink half a coffee while it’s still warm and sit down for three uninterrupted minutes, you’re basically on a wellness retreat.
