Project Notes

QandA: Why do you do extended projects? Why is there preview before the one night and film? Ross: The preview is held in one of the best theaters in Southern California.A theater that has held icons such as Ray Charles, Art Garfunkel, Sheena Easton, Melissa Manchester. Bea Arthur and Spike Lee to name a few. A place I have rented consistently since I was a child. Unlike the typical black box, this theater is a gorgeous spacious venue with movie star dressing rooms, large curtains, lighting, sound, crew, ticket booth, huge movie screen, billboard in the city and so many luxuries. Its the kind of showplace theater that when you invite guests like Sony, Bet, Warner Brothers and Netflix (who have come consistently) they are in the midst of a professional and sleek presentation. It's expensive however. One show can usually cost 20k. Understand that the actors and future superstars that we are casting are not 'name stars' yet. We are casting from Casting Network, a wonderful place where you are at the earlier parts of your journey. The truth is in 2026, with all the streaming and instant entertainment access, you really have to have a NAME or explosive gimmick to sell indie theater. Things have shifted. When I started a mere ad in the paper brought in the whole town. The world has changed. I didn't want to give it up due to all the possibilities. So doing a preview event with all the stories...whetting the audiences appetite then moving those individual stories to their own venue was a financial and creative move. In late summer 2023, I did a show and a major streaming service was there. We had a title called Murder Of Gorgeous in the show. The streaming service representatives loved the actors and the project so much, they wanted me to expand on it WITH THE ACTORS...that's another story. Regardless, this is why I do what I do....The possibilities are endless....
