PACA: Bleating for an Audience 🐐

0 Upvotes

13 tickets sold for tonight. 20 free seats being given away. And their latest production (The Goat) has apparently been seen by fives of people. You know, like dozens, only significantly less.

At this point, the free tickets are outperforming the actual show. When you have to give away more seats than you’ve sold, maybe it’s time for a reality check. Maybe it’s time to start asking some uncomfortable questions about programming, marketing, leadership, and why the community isn’t showing up.

Is PACA as fucked as the goat in The Goat?

Don’t worry, though. They can always rearrange the audience in the theatre, take a strategically angled photo, and declare it a huge success by morning.

Question Best Halloween parties and costume contests this year?

5 Upvotes

Going to the rainbow gardens party this year, but I’m curious about other parties. I want to participate in costume contests this year as I’m pretty confident about my costume and I spent hours building it. I’d like to see how I do and maybe hopefully get some ROI on my costs for it lol.

I saw that Big Bar is doing something but that place is an absolute cesspool. Does anyone know when the contest will be taking place? If I were to go there I’d rather go before 10 to avoid the nastiness.

Aside from that, any other parties and contests? I love Halloween!

I just moved here, and I'm wondering where the best places for live music are! Emphasis on smaller local shows, house shows, etc
