So I recently discovered the STATS tab for this blog. You can tell we are up on all the technological advancements here at Mondo Johnny World Headquarters. This tab tells me which of these little scribbles my audience is reading. While it gives me a few minutes of elation when one of the entries gets a lot of hits, I tend to worry what’s wrong with the ones that few people read. What’s wrong with this entry? Why doesn’t anyone love it? Why…
Sorry, got a little soap opera there for a minute. I’m back now. Won’t happen again.
One of my entries that gets a lot of hits is one I wrote about the 15 Plays that were a big influence on me. It was one of those Facebook challenges that was going around for awhile and was originally suggested to me by director and PhD to be Rick St. Peter. Most people don’t know this, but when I hosted a talk show for WCVE Public Radio, Rick was such a frequent guest, people used to ask if he was a co-host. He would have been a good one.
Anyway, enough about Rick, he doesn’t need me to be his publicist, he’s doing just fine without me.
I want to turn this challenge around and give it a little Mondo twist. What 5-10-15 plays would you like to SEE here in Richmond? You can explain why or why not. I know for a fact that one or two of the Artistic Directors in town drop by from time to time and I sure they would be interested in seeing what you have to say.
If you don’t want to leave it publicly, feel free to drop me a line at mondojohnnyblog@gmail.com. I’ll respect your wishes to remain anonymous but I may post your suggestions.
That’s it. Looking forward to your thoughts, And Rick, feel free to drop by anytime.

Gosh John, that's hard...
ReplyDeleteHere is my list:
Smile - I know, it didn't do well on Broadway but I think that one of the big boys could do wonders with the humor and all of the heart to this piece.
Jerry Springer, The Opera - just cuz
Summer and Smoke - I've always had a soft place in my heart for this one
All Good Men Deserve Favor - Can we get the Symphony?
Beyond Therapy
Cool list John. I've wanted to see Smile myself. I think it will do better away from Broadway. Jerry Springer has always intrigued me and we can never have enough Williams in the line ups. Now, how do we make it happen?
