PINK PANTHER
Hello friends,
I had an idea for a show. Yes, it is one of these things where you think that you have come up with the idea of your life. I thought I had it. The problem of things like that is that as soon as you say it some body they do not think that it is as good as you think it is. So that is how it is when you work with people.
But for me I still think it is a great idea. In my head I saw myself playing Inspector Closeau. For many years lots of people have told me how much do I look like Peter Sellers. Between you and me I am not as talented. I knew you already knew that but I wanted to state in this blog so there is not confusion about the greatness of my ego.
There is a fantastic part for each one of us, Toby would be not doubt about it the boss of Inspector Cluesau, Petra the love interest or the girl that has been robed, or the girl whose relative has been killed. And Stephan would have to be the Japanese servant that is trying to kill him all the time.
As far as I am concern it is a great idea and it would give us lots of opportunities to do many things that we always like to do in our shows.
But for all you that do not work in a group there are not many chances that the whole thing would be done. We all would have to be agreed and it is very difficult.
The reason why I thought about it is because once we went to visit the guy who runs the theatre program at the UCLA. He saw us perform in England some time ago. That night it was bad but I am not going to go into the reasons why it was bad. The thing is that he said that talking to the widow of Henry Mancini he told her that he had the perfect person to play Inspector Clusoau if she would ever think of doing a stage production. So it is not even my idea it belong to David Sefton.
Have fun.
