Hello loyal readers, I wanted to take a couple minutes to thank all twenty-four of you for your loyal support and to drop some knowledge on your blog-reading asses.
First, I am working on a two or three part story about my semi-successful, semi-disastrous, fully awesome trip to South Africa doing stand-up, that should be done in a week or so. Part 1 will be about the first leg on Johannesburg, where, for the first time in my professional career, I got kicked off stage and almost put a fat bitch in a cross-over toe hold. The new blog also involves a competition, so keep posted...
Second, I am starring in a new Off Broadway play about lesbians in the 1950s. When I heard I got an audition to do a play with a bunch of half-naked lesbians, I thought one thing: have they been reading my diary? Plus, Lily Tomlin just signed on as a producer, and apparently she's been working 9 to 5 on it. Nothing on that? Really?
The play is called "Beebo Brinker Chronicles". Previews begin tonight and Opening Night is March 5. The part most of you will be interested in is that I HAVE COMP TICKETS FOR ALL SHOWS FROM TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY, FEB 24.. If you want to see me do my play thing (there is a rumor that I show cockage in it, by the way), email me at bill@billdawes.com and I will hook you up with the freebies.
Third, I will be doing a killer set at the Laugh Factory in NYC on March 1st at 10pm. It's being filmed by a legit TV film crew so I will look extra hawt and be extra funny. Also, if you sit in the front you, I will literally dry hump your face. And, if you complain about it, I will have a big black guy in a suit throw you out.
I'm setting up the first 6 Rudius readers ONLY with comp tickets to the show if they email me. It will be sold out so HURRY up with requests! Half-price tickets (only 10 American dollars) are also available at the door if you mention you're with the group "superjabs" at the box office. It's going to be a great show, so if you're in NYC on March 1st you should definitely look into coming by.
There will be drinking afterwards and all that jazz with Ted 'JABS' LeClaire (www.myspace.com/superjabs) if you are into debauchery. I probably won't be going out afterwards because I will be in my apartment alone telling myself I'm better than you.
Lastly, thanks again for reading and look for the story of my banishment from the city of Johannesburg very soon!!!
