Default ATTENTION: Fling addition.

Squiggles brought forth an idea for the fling that we have decided to run with and are very excited about.(way to plant the seed Squig!)
She suggested we have someone perform a birthday party show to give those getting started an idea how a show is put together and how a birthday party is run. We have risen to the request and shall do it one better. There will be a new event added this year simply called The Birthday Party Clinic. I as well as possibly a few of the other instructors who are able and willing will be performing our shows. After the shows we will be working hands on with a select few attendees on a first come first serve basis working with their props to develop a show they can then take and perform. I have never seen this offered at any convention I have ever attended and anything like it would usually be offered for an additional fee but NOT AT OUR FLING! Due to time allotment this will be a limited number of attendees who must bring their props so we know what they are working with. If this interests you please speak up and let it be known in a reply to this thread and once we determine what we think we will have time for I will let you know who we will be working with. This clinic is of course open to all Flingers to watch and who knows what ideas you will pick up and be able to use on your own.

I was just thinking after talking to Scruffy on the phone the other night about possibly performing my act for the Hobo night on Friday but this idea sounds great itself Sean.

What ever props or tricks you think you would like to use in a show. The more you bring the more we have to work with.

How about "congrats on your Briss"? or "Happy Bat Mitvah"?
We have to watch our money so, It's likely a day old cake.

Some concession might have to be made......
