Crazy couple of months. Peter Pan: The Musical has closed its season and I'm very, very pleased with how it went. (At the same time I was also building a new pop-up escape room experience for my touring teams) Word-of-mouth certainly seemed to kick in for the second week of sales, ending with pretty close to full houses in the last couple of days. I was able to bring four of my OSHC group audiences to the show, which significantly helped increase ticket sales. And the feedback from them was excellent. Definitely some tweaks to happen in the process of how we engage them and get them into the venue. Went fairly smoothly but there's definitely some improvements we can make to simplify that for them. But we ended up finishing on 813 seats recorded across the two-week season of 16 shows. (The OSHC group leaders got in for free so its probably closer to 850 total) I was also able to reduce the overall spend as we went bring us about 15% under expected cash outlay on the show (approx $2k saving) There was, as always with independent shows, a lot of in-kind support, both from the venue and myself, in materials provided that were in stores rather than having to go out and purchase. Next job is to keep this audience as engaged as possible to excite them about coming back for the September show. What are you working on right now?

Love this. It was a tweet I saw and think it is a perfect reminder to keep pressing forward.

Did live on TikTok the other day. I don't use TT very much but I know the opportunity it presents so I thought I would give it a go. But... I can't see a recording of the live on my profile. Does TT not keep lives as ongoing content like a YouTube live or am I just not looking in the right places? Anyone know?
