Theatre Tales of the Techie

Tonight, we talk about Normal and why you don't want to go near being NORMAL!! I also share my thoughts on Burn OUT! Sorry folks, I said this was recorded August 4th, it was September 4th.

This will be a series of three podcasts.

1. A gift? How I learned to design.

2. What I learned (Projects)

3. Creativity, Imagination, Skills, and Experience equal Success. Why we fail.

This is a fun episode. My week leading up to this podcast was stellar. I then went to help my daughter set up her apartment while starting her senior year in college. We then had an awesome lunch. Our conversation made me remember some things I thought of when I was her age. Like I knew I was on the right path. Then, for some karmic celestial reason, an old pal called me while I had my 2.75-hour drive home from my daughter's college. Buckle up folks, I cover a lot in a short time in this one.

In this episode, I share an excellent conversation I had with a theatre guy named Mark. We discussed sales and design. At this time, I was not able to interview Mark. So I did my best to share what we discussed.

This podcast was recorded early on the morning of August 5th. I keep saying its night time. Sorry, habit.

In this episode, I talk about a great conversation I had with a theatre guy named Dillion. We talked about the three dealers I worked for. We also talked about the challenges of working with so many different personalities.

I had a really great time speaking with Brenden Rowan.

I asked Brenden these six questions-

-What got you into the theatre industry?

-What kept you in the theatre industry?

-What's the coolest thing you've done in theatre?

-What's the worst thing you have done in theatre?

-Where do you see yourself in ten years?

-Have you considered not working in a theatre, but in the theatre industry?

-Dealer

-Rep

-Manufacturer

Brended is a Design and Technology Student at Ball State University. He is working towards his BFA.

And special thanks to Miriam Morgan for connecting Brenden and me so I could make this podcast possible.

In this podcast, I discuss how simple is better and more successful. Why complicate things when in most cases, there is a simpler solution that will work? However, it takes experience and skills to see a simpler solution.

A long time ago, when I was sales manager of a dealer, I would do some very cool rentals. On occasion, I would do corporate rentals. This rental was special.
