The Sunday Giveaway: 2 Tickets to Traces Off-Broadway.
This week on The Sunday Giveaway, we’re giving away tickets to Traces, the Off-Broadway show that is what you’d get if Cirque du Soleil and Blue Man Group had a baby . . . but Cirque was also having an affair with Stomp, so you’re a little unsure of who the daddy is.
Ok, so obviously, I’ve had one too many Red Bulls tonight so let’s just give the frickin’ tickets away already . . .
Here’s how to win tickets to Traces:
The actor-bats in Traces have an unbelievable amount of special skills. Don’t believe me? Check out their “America’s Got Talent” appearance here. They can tumble, they can flip, and they can do things with poles that would make a lot of strippers a lot of money.
What’s your special skill? Comment below (email subscribers, click here) and tell me something you can do that might be featured in a fabulous performance piece like Traces, and I’ll pick my favorite and that will win. You know, like, I can wiggle my ears, I can cook pancakes blindfolded, stuff like that.
Now, yes, this is an online competition, but be careful, I may make you pick up the tickets in person so you can show my staff your skill.
Ready? Show off your skill!

FUN STUFF
– 18 Days to Godspell! Read the day-by-day account of producing Godspell on Broadway here.
My talent:
I can use my hands to “whistle” the same way that Joey’s owner does in War Horse.
I’ve got double jointed fingers and elbows, but I can also do a pretty fierce Shakira voice mimic!
A fierce rendition of ‘They Can’t Take That Away From Me’ as Ella AND Louis.
Is being able to work with teenagers a talent?
I can play a blues version of Amazing Grace on my harmonica while lying upside down in plow position (a Yoga position).
I can make custom Barbie and Ken dolls to look ad dress like anyone you or I
know!

I can raise my pantyhose by lifting my eyebrows.
I can knit with my eyes closed (or in a dark theatre).
It is certainly not theater worthy but I can pick up almost anything with my toes including a wineglass by the rim.
I can hit Christine’s high note from Phantom… and I’m a guy.
This is seriously the best comment. Well done, sir, you’re my new best friend XD lmao
Oh jeez, um…I dunno! LOL
I…can hum a song while making weird clicking/rhythmic pattern-y sounds with my mouth, kinda like beat-boxing, but poser-beat-boxing… lol XD
I can do a pretty realistic Sarah Palin impression!!

I can sing “By My Side” from Godspell while dancing the samba in tap shoes!
I can sing tomorrow from Annie in Japanese, while accompanying myself on the accordion! (and i’m a dude!)
I can stick my whole fist in my mouth
I can swing on a trapeze from my knees and sing broadway show tunes… drive a horse and carrage with one hand and balance an egg on a spoon with the other hand… 🙂
I can speak to goats.
I can wiggle my ears and moonwalk.
by slapping my cheeks I can play take me out to the ball game, or the william tell overture (Lone Ranger Theme). it is compl;icated now that I have a full beard as the facial hair sort of acts like a mute
I also can do a few cartoon voices, but generally only marginal characters. Like Selma and Patty from the Simpsons, or Marvin the Martian. The only main character is Bobby from Bobby’s World (and Howie Mandel’s standup routines)
I can stand here and look cute! 🙂
(well, opinions vary, so it may just be me standing here looking silly)
I can water ski karaoke.
This means I water ski while singing songs like I Can Do That, King of the World, All that Jazz so loud that the people on the boat have to guess what I am singing. Sometimes I through in some water ski dance moves.
