Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful news!!!

Just as a reminder, here's the dates it will be playing:

One of the highlights of this eventful year was our August night in the Village to see the TomKat Project with a group of Bunker regulars.

We’d been looking forward to seeing Brandon Ogborn’s play about celebrity and Scientology since it opened in Chicago for a very successful run. And after we got to see the hilarious comedy, we heard from a lot of readers who wanted to know — when is the show coming to Los Angeles?

It’s a natural for LA, which is all about both celebrity and L. Ron Hubbard’s cabal. And now, you can help send Brandon and his troupe to the iO West Theater on Hollywood Boulevard, just steps from one of Scientology’s most important landmarks — the Hollywood Guaranty Building!

The HGB houses the L. Ron Hubbard Life Exhibition on the ground floor, and the upstairs offices have been the site of some pretty amazing Scientology history — including Jenna Miscavige Hill’s thought of tossing herself out a window!

Anyway, TomKat Project producer Dein Sofley has secured November 15 (8 pm), November 16, (8 pm), and November 17 (7 pm) for shows at the iO West.

Just one more thing to piss DM off.

Re: TomKat to LA? YES -- The Hollywood Reporter Story - October 23, 2013

Fresh from The Hollywood Reporter....following up on their own story, dated November 1, 2013....

"'TomKat Play Meets Kickstarter Goal, Will Stage In Scientology's Backyard"

Link to full story here: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/tomkat-play-meets-kickstarter-goal-650392

Excerpt:

The project about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes earned $15,000 and will run at Hollywood's iO West Theater, which producer Dein Sofley notes is just "338 feet from a Church of Scientology building."

Love this.

And The Hollywood Reporter's doing a wonderful job, too.

In this Hollywood Reporter story is says:

Says Sofley [Producer], "Our biggest concern is that the church might catch wind of [the production] and purchase all of the tickets so that there would be no seats."

I'm several thousand miles away from the theater and cannot make the show but if I was planning to go wouldn't wait to buy my tickets!

That's terrible! It never occurred to me they might do that!

Edit: They should send complimentary tickets to Tom!

sell outs are good and lead to hold overs don't they?

Terrible that the cult might buy up all the seats for the show.

 

[In present time]

well, i doubt they really will.
but, that's hollywood, supply and demand.
i haven't read the whole thread, maybe i am missing something here.
no theatre company cries about sell outs.
what am i missing?

This post from Type4 where he links to this article and quotes Dein Sofley (Brandon Ogborn's stunningly beautiful wife) as saying, "Our biggest concern is that the church might catch wind of [the production] and purchase all of the tickets so that there would be no seats." She is also the producer of the show.

Sindy took me to see it when I was in Chicago, and I can see why Dein and Brandon would be concerned about Scientology buying all the seats. That would mean either no audience or a hostile audience, and so much of the vibe of the thing comes from the interaction with the audience in a live show - the energy you know. And also it means that nobody else gets to see how Miscavige is portrayed - absolutely brilliantly and completely hysterically by Micah Sterenberg.
