Ninja Fringe and Promotion Thread

I emailed about 8 different galleries in Olde City, so far three have turned me down flat for various reasons.

I've priced some Ninja costumes. They appear to be about $30. I think the costume store in Philly might be a little cheaper. More like $20. We should probably shoot the promotional shots some place other than the basement, but it does have plenty of props. Perhaps we could make it work. Can people meet on a Saturday or Sunday for a photo shoot? Not this weekend because of Easter, but maybe next week?

HEY! I totally forgot about this but this is a super easy way to make a Ninja mask out of a t-shirt. Check it out! What do you think? It would be remarkably cheaper and, I think, funnier.

DIY and Improv go together like Ninjas and Pie Charts, no?

That T-shirt thing could work. Does everyone have at least one black T-shirt and some kind of black top to wear? Also, if you have some kind of black pants that would be good too.

By the way, we have until April 4th to get our non-refundable $75 check to the Fringe Festival to reserve our spot. That's not much time people. Start beating the bushes for a venue.

We may have already talked about this and I totally missed it, but have we thought of booking space through PHIT? There's a thread about it on the IRC with all the info.

Yeah, unfortunately...

Here is the schedule of dates/time for Fringe at The Adrienne Mainstage...

Monday through Wednesday will likely be $100 a slot
Thursday and Sunday will probably be $175 a slot
Friday and Saturday will be between $200-$300 a slot.

Kinda expensive in my view.

I walked through Old City on Tuesday, but all the galleries I passed were closed Sad

Thanks Dan!

I've been sick most of the week, but I've been making some calls. So far, no luck. But we may get a show or two with PHIT.
