We opened “Murder Las Vegas Style!” last night. It was a great show, but I have to tell you, the week running up to opening was a hair raiser. Wednesday morning, we suddenly found ourselves without an actor to play Eddie the Ventriloquist. ( don’t ask it’s a long long story) That bit of misfortune turned into a true stroke of good luck in the form of Carl Bogdan. Carl picked up a script, rehearsed Thursday night, and performed flawlessly on Friday! And he was funny! What a pro! Carl is one very talented dude. Check out russbogdan.com and you’ll see what I mean. (the guy has two names Rusell, and Carl- go figure) Thank again Carl and all the cast!
