no aic vote. we're done.

the general theater going acot member audience votes on it.

if anything, i hope this encourages them to go out and see some improv they wouldn't have normally gone and seen.

[mental note: find out where general theater-going acot member audiences get their news of what shows to attend, and then advertise there]. [like now].

Nice!

He's also writing the American version of wunna my favorite Kurosawa movies, High and Low.

I usually cringe at American remakes of foreign classics, but I have a good feeling about a Mike Nichols/David Mamet collab on that...
