I have read mixed reviews......but one article mentioned that he video taped all the rehearsals as well as opening night. The point I am trying to offer is that while the big grand opening has passed.....the show is nearing it's run......and it has been stated that he has no plans to bring tot mom to the US.....I am curious if the hype, reactions, comments and reviews are all part of his next project. The entire marketing plan as I posted in the link, was developed to utilize audience reaction and public opinion as the marketing for the production itself. So if not for the benefit of a US run.....then my thought process says it will be used for another one. Otherwise.....why gather so much reaction when Australians themselves have stated that they just don't obsess about it like we do. I don't think there is any reason to try to invite Mr. Soderbergh here unless the invitation is extended by Tricia.
Okay, now I hear what you're saying. (took me a while....lol) Quite brilliant really, creating so much interest, by saying that americans wouldn't take favourably to the play, thereby making them more eager to see his work that follows.
Even though the whole topic has insulted many Americans, he knows that they will watch whatever else he has in the works, just like he watched Nancy .He's burning a fire beneath the American public so people can't not watch what he is offering.
Brilliant, and unashamedly manipulative.
If you're right I vow to never watch another production he is involved in.
