i must be a masochist.
i’m sitting at home getting ready to go and be a part of robert smiegel’s ‘triumph the insult comic dog’s’ broadway debut.
i love robert smiegel and i love triumph, but being involved with him/them/it is almost always an abject exercise in masochism.
i.e-i just sit there and get abused.
but at least it’s funny abuse.
and i have no idea what i’m going to do. i assume that it will be some variation of the ‘sit on stage and be abused’ schtick that has kept broadway audiences entertained for years.
and, speaking from experience, it’s hard to have witty banter with a dog puppet, especially a dog puppet as funny as triumph.
wish me luck as i head into the valley of abuse.
