by Tyler Peterson
- Sep 16, 2013
Legendary showman Jeff Beacher, creator and host of Beacher's Madhouse, will make a triumphant return to Las Vegas at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino beginning December 2013. With the energy of a circus and the atmosphere of an A-list Hollywood party, the world's most outrageously sexy and over-the-top Vaudeville-inspired show will reach new heights of madness. Beacher, who Rolling Stone magazine declared the 'Best Showman on the Strip,' is best known for his ability to push the boundaries of sexuality, entertainment and fantasy. 'Expect the unexpected. I'm going to take the Madhouse and live entertainment to new levels with never-before-seen acts. And there's no better place to do this than at the famed MGM Grand,' said Beacher.
BWW Blog: Adam Brandner - Getting the Word Out

Sometimes change can be good. Even a little break can be all you need sometimes to cure the monotony of your day to day routine. As actors, the rehearsal schedules can get grueling and even tedious and it's possible that even after all of your hard work teching a show, only your grandma and best friend show up to see it. In my experience, community theatre crowds can be very, very small. I've performed musicals in front of crowds less than twenty before. It's discouraging. What is to be done? Spend thousands on promotion? Call up Miley Cyrus for a twerking commercial spot that will most definitely fill your theatre's empty seats? No. For the most part, promotional budgets simply don't exist for community theatres. If they do, they don't pack enough punch to get the word out to those who aren't looking for your promotion already. In this article, I'd like to give a few suggestions for bringing theatrical awareness to your community and for breaking the monotony of a tough rehearsal schedule for your cast. I have a few ideas as to how you can make people aware of your show. Also, these suggestions just may be the change/break your cast may need to keep the energy alive and the seats packed.
