Attention People of New York City:
Hello. This is your man Dave Hill writing to remind you one last time that TOMORROW, which is to say Thursday, August 20 at 9:30pm, I will be unleashing a rare public display of my brand new one-man show “Big in Japan” for the second time ever in North America at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, which is under Gristede’s, a reputable grocer, in case you need anything. If you see just one Japan-based show in a basement this Thursday night, I am really hoping you decide to see mine because it is remarkable in ways that even I can’t fully wrap my head around at the moment. In case you are wondering, my new “Big in Japan” show is a true story about rock-n-roll excess; the trappings of international fame, fortune, and fingering; monkeys for sale at below retail prices; espionage; and chicks who I am pretty sure totally want to make out and stuff. It is directed by the great Jeff Tomsic, assistant directed by the lovely Nicole Brodeur, and features the incomparable Chris Chuang in the role of a lifetime. There are also tasteful photographs, videos, vignettes, smoke, fire, and lots of guitar solos incorporated into the show to insure that you are totally getting your five dollars worth or pretty close to it. In short, my new “Big in Japan” show pretty much has everything and then also some other stuff besides that. I imagine in the coming days, weeks, months, and years I will be presented with all sorts of awards, honorary degrees, and coupons as a result of having done this show, so I am guessing it will be really fun for you to come see it now before it is translated back into its original Danish and performed only for heads of state, Olympic figure skating great Oksana Baiul, baseball’s Keith Hernandez, Babs, Gene Shalit, Phylicia Rashad, and whoever else I think might really “get it.” I really hope you can make it. There will be prizes and also snacks. You can get tickets right here.
Love,
Dave Hill
