A fantastic actor from USA/Netherlands was here this weekend.Bruce Kuhn
He was performing a one-man show: The Gospel of Luke. Arranged to meet up with him after his last performance in Singapore. As a Christian, I hoped it would be a rallying and encouraging time for some of the believers in theatre I've come to know here. Since I don't think any of them read this blog, they won't know how things turned out. But here it is:
Here's the tally
Invited: 21
No reply: 5
Attended: 0
Ah well. Their loss. I enjoyed a short time meeting him and his host. It's almost humorous reading my cell phone's sms log of those responding to my invitation and reminder messages. Here's a couple:
Wed 9/20 Can’t make it, but did you get wedding invite?
Wed 9/20 Why does all the good stuff happen when I’m out of town?
Wed 9/20 Hey dear, I’ll be in Spain from this Sunday til next so Monday’s out to me. Let me know how I can help spread the word about the meeting.
Sat 9/23 Hey kim, can’t make it. Would you be willing to post a review of the show?
