Who won the tickets to see Kinky Boots with Wayne freakin’ Brady?
As one of the Producers of Kinky Boots I could do a fancy expensive focus group to see if people are still interested in seeing the show almost three years after it won the Tony Award . . . or I could just do a Sunday Giveaway and see how many entries I got.
Boom time! I just saved us about $10k and found out . . . you guys really, really want to see it, because I got a ton of entries for this week’s giveaway for two tickets to see the show with its new star, Wayne Brady!
And it turns out, you guys love a replacement . . . reminding me of such great replacement star turns as Reba (does she need a last name?) in Annie Get Your Gun, Betty Buckley in Sunset Boulevard and all of the replacements in the recent Hedwig revival! (We won’t talk about the Ally Sheedy replacement from the original.)
Well, soon-to-be-announced winner, get ready to see the next super replacement . . .
The winner is . . . Natalia O! Email me to get your tickets! And congrats!
And now, perhaps we should all petition the Tony Awards for that special replacement Tony Award. 🙂
