Many aspects of my police character, many aspects of the shows I create, are based on his work and "The Naked Gun" franchise.

MORE THANKS!

Thanksgiving was spent writing shows for December and plots for December public shows were basically completed - assuming the TV series they are based on doesn't have a surprise ending coming up.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

The Killing Kompany has much to thank:

1. The actors who perform with us in all sorts of capacities and roles.

2. The venues and private clients who hire us.

3. The audience members who attend our events.

4. The press who promote our event.

5. The waitstaff who work with us.

6. Our suppliers of prizes, props, equipment, etc.

The list is endless. It is now over 17 years that The Killing Kompany has written and performed all sorts of interactive events. There have been about 1500. Some of the venues we have performed with we have been with for over 10 years. Some of the actors who still perform with us have been involved in shows since 15 years ago. For all this and more, I am thankful and I say thank you and have a great Thanksgiving!

A NEW PRIVATE SHOW FOR DECEMBER

And it's a biggie - 300 people.

GET YOUR GUEST SUSPECTS IN!

Now is the time for everyone attending the December shows to start giving us information regarding guest suspects.

NEW VENUE?

I am negotiating with a new venue in NJ for public shows but before any announcement, let me remind all of our next show in December!

THE 39 STEPS - CLOSING

We’ve just received news that THE 39 STEPS is closing on January 16, 2011; so unfortunately, we will not be able to issue any more ticket vouchers as prizes at our events. The show has had a fantastic run (3 years!) and we are happy with the successful promotional partnership we have formed in our efforts to help promote THE 39 STEPS. Best of luck to Nicole Pando of HHC Marketing who worked with us on this venture.

Of course, The Killing Kompany shows are still on - 17 years and a new show each time. Our December shows are being written and cast right now.

TONIGHT!

IT WAS 17 YEARS AGO TOMORROW

The first Killing Kompany show was on November 13, 1993 in Akron, Ohio. I was performing in Amadeus at the Cleveland Music Center that summer and Connie Britton, who I worked with on many occasions, asked me to put together a show for a benefit for Akron General Hospital, of which her mother was a former Board member, for later that year. Starring in that show was, among others, myself, Connie Britton and Susan Aston. Thanks to all who wished a "Happy Birthday"

IN HONOR OF VETERAN'S DAY

My father - WW II - the Pacific.

SORRY ABOUT THAT.

We may have had some internet problems regarding the flyer for our December 4 show but it is working now and here it is.

AND REMEMBER FOR OUR NOVEMBER 13 SHOW....

....The winner will receive, in addition to our regular prizes, a voucher for two free tickets to the Tony Award winning play THE 39 STEPS.
