How would YOU...

... raise about $23K in 7 months?

I'm thinking about holding Vaudeville Open Mikes in town, good lord we have enough disgruntled circus people. What I really need is a wealthy sponsor. Someone who reallllly likes clowns.

Whaddya got for ideas, oh clever firends?

Well that's putting the cart before the horse. First I have to put together a 3 minute silent audition piece about my life. Jesus christ. I can't think of a single thing I wouldn't cringe to see if somebody else did it. And time is running out for the March 1st deadline. I haaaaaaate self indulgent performance pieces. Hate. Shall we go all caps? Let's. HATE. Am I doomed to become what I hate most??

This has been my Cupcake LunchBreak Braindump Update.

Rat- remember, for it to be self indulgent, you have to indulge the self. Managing perception of yourself is self indulgent, but telling the truth about yourself is the greatest gift you can give an audience. If you are terrified for the audience to see the version of yourself you're giving them, you're probably on the right track. If you're brave enough not to be terrified of telling the audience the truth, please tell me how you did it.
