I checked out Evite to see if that was a way to publicize my performances. It turned out it wasn't. They charge a hefty service fee for every ticket sold. But in the process of engaging with the website, I was offered the services of AI to help me come up with publicity content. I declined but that didn't matter. AI decided to participate on its own, and came up with this:
Get ready for a down-home, country-fried love story with HICK: A Love Story It's gonna be a hootenanny y'all won't wanna miss!
I laughed so hard. AI, you sure went down the wrong wormhole with this one!
I hope some of you will make it to my very last outing. I'm getting better and better. Last Sunday, I felt very loose, in a good way. I felt like I wasn't just playing the part, I was playing WITH the part. Joyce, my stage manager, is the ultimate connoisseur of my performance, having seen it so many times. She said it was my best ever. That might be true. My friend Susan sent a bunch of her friends to the show, and two of them texted their appreciation to her and used the word "phenomenal." I don't think anyone has ever described the show with that word.
I don't take the good reviews personally. Contrary to getting a swelled head, I always have the feeling that they're talking about someone standing right next to me. But "phenomenal" is a pretty nice word.
And now, the same old info about the show, with links for tickets at the bottom:
