A Fringe Quickie (#374) with ‘The Cheesecake Burlesque Revue’

Questions answered by Champagne Sparkles.

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

There are 12 of us and we’ll be staging coordinated Sparkle Shenanigans! We’ll be out and about to catch eyes and bring the audiences in! We hope to see YOU there!

Q2: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?

Hot tub, cheese pizza (extra saucy), and champagne!

Q3: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?

We look around the dance floor, the sun is rising, and we’re the last ones standing!

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

They’ll wake up with a smile on their face, a wiggle in their step, and in some cases, with tassels in their purse!
