I have this long-running joke with my kids about squid and potatoes. It’s not even a joke. It’s just that I’ve been talking about squid and potatoes forever.
Why?
I don’t know. They’re funny words together, I guess, and it’s always good to have a default response to a silly question.
That’s part of the reason this Squid Show was about… squid.
Anyway, now I’m thinking about bringing the whole benefit show thing to a resolution by doing a show about potatoes.
I’m thinking about calling it One Night of Potatoes or A Night for the Potato or even Give the Potato Some.
Anyway, if things go okay at Ground Floor Theatre later this month, I’m going to see if they’ll give me a deal to rent the stage in 2018 to put it on.
More on that later. Start thinking about your potato-oriented performance pieces now!
And we’ll do vodka-related drinks, I guess?
p.s. Going to meet with this Vela organization next week about possibly being on their board or involving them in a future fundraiser (my friend Raul works with them). I love that they’re relatively small and growing and focus directly on family impact. Looking forward to it.
