Saturday: We were told that it was a sell-out audience. There were one or two seats open, but then there were people seated in the very back of the house. So, assuming 60 of the 70 audience members actually paid, the company has already broken even financially.
On top of that, people seemed to enjoy themselves at the show. Granted, more than half the house was filled with friends of ours, so that was nice, but the compliments afterward seemed genuine. The plan to sell the original soundtrack on CDs for $4 fizzled, though.
Sunday: The crowd was a little smaller, and there were some flubs (unfinished costume changes, minor lighting miscue, one injured cast member), but by the end, people were smiling and some even humming a tune on their way out.
We'd like to think that there is enough strong material to withstand some setbacks. And we sold four CDs!
Josh also wrote from his perspective on Fresno Famous.
... We'd like to thank everyone who came out, and we hope they tell their friends. There are three more performances: Wednesday (8:30), Thursday (5:30) and Friday (8:30).
