Blogger-author Kevin Smokler relates:
I recently got a call from the publicist of Beach Blanket Babylon, which has been running at Club Fugazi in North Beach [in San Francisco] since Jesus was a pup. They’re dying to get more natives, more young people, more tech savvy folk to come see the show. So based on the work I did for the Film Festival, the folks at BBB want me to assemble a group of bloggers to come see the show. On them. The perks:
1. Free front row section seats to Beach Blanket Babylon
2. We get to stick around afterward and tour the theatre.
3. I’m 99% sure they’ll let us try on the hats.
4. I’m working on letting us interview cast members too.
As always, a free ticket does not mean you must write nice things about the show on your blog. But you must write something. So if you have no intention of posting about the experience, please do not accept a ticket.
Finally, I’ve seen BBB. It’s cornier than Iowa. If corny isn’t your thing and you know it, please don’t take a ticket just so you can trash the show.
Our date is Wed, July 5th. I’ve got 20 free tickets so first come first served. Claim them now.
I saw BBB almost 20 years ago at the Fugazi. My friend loved it; I was underwhelmed. If you like kitsch, you’ll like it. Contact Kevin here.
