Manitowoc had a lot of community involvement building up to this show. They had the Shanty contest (see Becca's blog for pictures of some of the shantys) It was a fun show. The booth was on the first balcony in what used to be the center section when it was a movie theater. It was open air - just sitting in the balcony, so Bill, Craig and I were right in the middle of the house.
The audience LOVED the show, they laughed at everything, even a lot of things that aren't usually funny! For the first time, when Lloyd is telling Marvin why Debby left him, the audience was on Lloyd's side! They even supported him in caring more about the Packers than her! It was great fun to be right in the middle of it. During the half time show Ernie picked people all the way up in the third balcony - it was fun and they
embraced their life in the "Cheap Seats" Since this was the closest we played to Green Bay Doug had about 30 people in the house. It is also my home town so I had a lot of family there and ran into old friends that I knew afterwards in the lobby. At the end of the show - Doug pointed out his Mom sitting in the second row - it was really sweet. We again had a bar in the hotel and it was a lot of fun.
