be that actor, that actress,that director. And Robert Cooperman has the
best opportunity for anyone who's seriously thinkingabout that. Welcome back, Roberts two
(00:25):
weeks in a row. I knowyou guys, are you're really running out

the fact of the matter is theaudience just loves me. So this is
popular to man. You you cameback. I came back. I did
my own personal poll and I pulledmy wife and my dogs and they want
me back and us Yeah, andyou too. Yeah, So I knew
(00:48):
there was five. So Robert Coopermanhas stage right theatrics. And if you're
a regular listener overall, you've mostlikely heard Robert before. I call him
the funniest guy that I know.And he takes offense to that. I
don't know. I don't take offenseto it. It's just I don't think
it's true unless you're talking about looks. Are you easily offended? No,
not at all. No, youhave to you have to really work at
it to offend me. I waskiddy because I know you're not easily offended.
(01:11):
Oh okay, so I'm well thatwas three minutes. I won't ever
get back. But something Boots happenedin his theater, stage right theatrics,
and I'm sorry for you. It'svery disappointing that it is. So what
happened was I had planned to doa wonderful musical in November called The Fantastics.
It's been a round since nineteen sixty, which makes it older than me,
(01:34):
which is that's pretty old. AndI had this in the works working
with a director and a musical directorsince last fall. Director writes to me
yesterday and says, you know,I didn't know you were conserving. Oh
my goodness. Yeah. So what'syour stage right theatrics? Oh, stage
right, stage right, theater,stage left. We used to put on
(01:57):
the we put on the Conservative TheaterFestival. A guy is full of sugar.
Casere hit the dumb But no,no, no, no, I'm
a professional I'm on this show somuch. I'm you know you are.
We've taught you well mean, well, you haven't want to told me to
curse. So he quit, hesays, and he's taking his stage manager
and his musical director with him,and good riddence. That's good riddence.
(02:20):
But you know, I wanted todo this show and this is now two
years in a row that I can'tdo this show because the directors quit on
me because they don't like my power. They set you up, is what?
Yeah, this is? This isso head left and yeah, well
that's that's how they roll. Ifyou if you prove them wrong, they
f you and flip you off.And Tambert said it that way. I
(02:42):
was ready to hit the dumb.Yeah. So this is where people need
to rally together and support of youand in support of stage Right theatrics because
you know what, you shouldn't.I don't care what you what line of
business you're in, or who youare, you should never let politics stop
you from doing what you really wantto do or letting it really hurt relationships
(03:02):
because it's not worth it in thelong run. No, it's not.
And you know the thing is thatI always say about my company is we
have no litmus test. If youwant to work with us, we don't
care what color you are. Wedon't care who you sleep with. We
don't care if you're large or smallor anything like that. We don't care.
Just enjoy theater with us. Andas a result, we have had
(03:23):
many many diverse if you will kiss, not that I'm busy counting which which
faces in the room are not white, but you know, we've we've had
so many different kinds of people fromall walks of life working with us,
and there's never a problem. Butthen you have these these woke, generally
white leftists who say, you know, oh, we can't work with you
(03:46):
because this will compromise our beliefs.Even have no beliefs. If I can't
work with you anymore, A littleshort, chubby New Yorkers, I'm out.
That's right. Well I'm not sure, you know, as you're tall.
I'm tall, but I am chubbyin a New Yorker So yeah,
as meat, No, no,I'm about six six and and i've lost
a little height as i've gotten older. Okay, but it's front. You
(04:11):
know what I'd like you if youwere a different color, if you were
a lefty, if you were gay, I wouldn't care because you're my friend.
That's exactly how I mean it.We're on the same I don't understand
that. I mean, I stilllike Boots even though he's mean conceded,
that's right. I'm not going toset obnoxious. Yeah. But but but
(04:36):
that's my point. You really shouldn'tlet what someone stands for in politics interfere
with your livelihood. And now you'reout, now, I mean, are
you? Is there time for youto hire a stage director or a director
of music? Directors, music director? Do it? It's possible, It
(04:57):
is possible, it can be done. I have music, that's the thing.
I've got three musicians, and that'swhat I needed. It was three
musicians, and I've got those.I just need a musical director. Every
anybody out there who would like tobe a musical director, Okay, what
do you direct when it comes tomusic? Don't you have? Not looking
light of it. I'm just beingan outside and not understandings. If you
have a guy that's a drummer,a bass player, and a guitarist,
(05:18):
that's how much I limited I amon that. But and you're gonna play
uh, Hotel, California. Here'syour music. Shut up and move on.
I mean, what do you gotto direct? Well, the thing
is you well, you do wantto go direct to the ensemble, even
if it's a small ensemble. Justa conductor will conduct an orchestra, you
know. Otherwise you could just givethe pieces of paper with the music on
it to the orchestra and say,here you go, guy out of a
(05:40):
job. Won't you just have aguy say, you know, after this
line you play this, well,you really do need to rehearse that paid
position. Oh yeah, yeah,it is Well that would have to be
not too yeah, but let's putit this way. I could smoke that
cigar myself. No, I youknow, I know I have no ability
(06:03):
to be a music director. Youknow what you should do? Tell me
you should reach out to local highschools their theater department. I just did,
actually a few days ago, lookingfor performers. Yeah, and I
reach out to a couple in thelocal Dublin area because that's where we perform
at the Dublin Arts Council, excuseme, at the Dublin rec Center and
(06:26):
the Abbey Theater. So I've donethat. But you know, I don't
have a lot of time because wewere hoping to have auditions on in September
and then the performances are in November, so that would be all rehearsal time
from the end of November through October. So you reach out to Automne.
Autobne has come on. They do, but they are so to the left,
but on everybody in the department isleft right to be the right winger
(06:48):
hanging in there. There's got tobe somebody who just wants an opportunity that
won't let politics interfere with the helpthat person's listening. Yeah, maybe this
go. Hey, you have yourbeliefs, we have ours, but that's
worked together. Love theater, that'swhat. And the Fantastics is such a
heartwarming, wholesome show. Nobody couldobject to the Fantastics. Okay, so
(07:10):
we're gonna go on break, butyou gotta answer me one question before I
go. What kind of priests didthe director drive? Was it a color
directed the show? I don't knowwhy you know I drove? I figured
out that I don't know. Iused to drive it. Can we say
their names on the air? Idon't want to. Maybe we get sued
up on our owning you. Ijust feel bad forever. That should not
be the way it is. Soif anyone knows anyone in that industry that
(07:32):
wants to get a leg up tosay break a leg right, that's right,
get the leg up and then breakit, then keep listening because we
have more information for you. Allright, legs up on Raw with Vidian
Foots on News Radio six ten WTVM, powered by Tattletaleber Cooperman. He's back
(07:57):
in the studio with Boots and me. Boy, that's goods, director,
that's very good. Yeah, theway you came up with that, not
everybody has that gift, and clearlyyou don't either. Leaders what we call
them mini minute makeups, because whenI cheered, it was I'm not coming
queen makeups? Were you homecoming Queen? No? I was not for my
(08:22):
daughter? Was I was on court? Were you who punked? You were
not here to talk about I wantto know now now we brought up right,
No, I want to hear aboutit about Robert the girl beach.
I was not homecoming Queens anyway.I don't remember the homecoming queens, and
we didn't do home homecoming queen andBronx. Were you the queen and queens
(08:43):
the same thing. I was homeI don't recall ever any of that homecoming
stuff in the in the high schoolguys, you know they got a box
now and if you got a floweryour homecoming queen, that's the biggest those
guys. You just didn't get alongwith kids. I just did. That's
not true and they not at all. No, no, no, that's
not true. I got shoved ina closet. No, but you,
(09:07):
I came out of the closet andI was homecoming queen. You identify as
a homecoming queen. Oh this isrocking here today. What you're to graduate
high school nineteen eighty. Man,he's a lot older than you, Mandy,
Oh my gosh, and you too. No, I'm not five years
older than you. Look good foryour age. Well thanks a lot.
(09:28):
Sixty three, I'm sixty. That'sclose enough. I'm so happy. Birthday.
We should that sixty August twenty six, Well my birthday, thank you
sixty or sixty one, sixty onewe should have celebrated last year when he
turned six. Steven Yeah talking,you know me. I don't talk about
myself. So, but here's becauseexactly up a director. Maybe you ought
(09:50):
to be a director. Well,yeah, so here's the deal. Robert
Cooperman has stage right theatrics, andhe's kind of in a little pickle right
now because three people quit on him. This stage director, director and musical
director. And you know, knowingyou as we know you, you're so
fun to be around, and you'rereally your heart's in the right place.
You just want to left side ofmy chest, exactly right. We just
(10:11):
want you just want to give peoplean option when it comes to live theater.
So it's across the board equal andthree guys quit. Were they all
guys? I think one was awoman. I did not meet her,
but I met the other two.Three that's all, you know, that's
an assumption. But yeah, threepeople, and how old were the average?
And one was seventy something already?The other two oh, also in
the seven I think the guy waslike a seventy year old musical director.
(10:33):
I don't know about the stage manager. So how experienced do they have to
be? I mean, somebody's listeningand thinking, you know what, I
want to help him out. I'mconservative. I believe in his values.
But you know the thing is,they don't have to be concernative but a
lot of people want to stick togetherand write right right, well, you
like cancel culture right when someone triesto look at Morgan Wallen, people tried
to cancel him a couple of yearsago, had a show with the Stadium
(10:56):
of the Horseshoe Friday night and Saturday, sellout crowd. That's right. So
people are trying to cancel you thesethree. They've been trying to cancel me
for seven years. So that's whatmy point is, trying to help those
are trying to get canceled. Yeah, yep, Well you have to have
some experience. I mean I don'twant you know, gi you know,
I played you know, trombone injunior high. You know, we don't
(11:16):
want that. But those guys,huh because they probably don't have the experience
I identify as a trombone do youyes, well look at me? What
is so anyway? So yeah,you know, if there's somebody out there,
that would be wonderful. We don'thave a lot of time because the
show is going to go up inmid November, but I would love to.
We got musicians, we've got avenue, we've got scripts, I've
(11:39):
paid the royalties. You know.That's another pain in the neck because if
I don't, if I cancel,I'm gonna have to pay something to the
to the company that had that,you know, to the company that leases
the rights to the show. It'sit's just really depressing, and it's unfair,
and it's and it's it's not professional. Well, we'll go to find
his way, he charges his car, and we'll keep on plug. That's
(12:00):
it. That's the way I wasgonna put a banana peel under him.
But that's a better idea. Let'ssay someone is listening right now. They
have maybe a niece or a nephewor someone else, and they're saying,
you know what, I can maybehelp out. Where do they go?
How do they contact me? Atstage right eight two six at gmail dot
com. Call you got you gotDebbie a director or a Trump bonner?
(12:26):
No, okay, there might bea venue for you to maybe get this
together with. Because I mean,you and I don't agree on politics and
all that. And that's okay,Debbie. I still like you, Debbie.
That's cool. Hang up, Debbi, I mean, go on,
Debbie. I have a venue.I do have a venue, Debbie that
I have. I have the theAbbey Theater of Dublin. They've been wonderful.
(12:50):
It's just I think it's crazy thatsomeone would. Oh, it's just
it's not the it's not the Americanway. I agree, thank you,
Debbie. That's Rebbie, Debbie.Why do the left get so aggressive and
flipping you off and cussing you outand stomping their feet? And I mean,
what do you tell your friends thatact like that? You don't act
(13:11):
like that. You can have acivilized conversations with us people. But yeah,
I just you know, it's becauseI don't. This is why I
have very huge crazy these days,because to accept pointing fingers and blaming and
doing all this. I just wantfolks to get along, no matter.
(13:35):
Yes, but for you, Debbie. We love Debbie. Yeah, we
love Debby. Debbie. You bringup a good point. I just want

that you call. And you justkeep being you. Yeah, keep being
(14:46):
Yeah. Sometimes when your dog usesa kiddy litter, don't hold it against
it. I've got another idea.Let's hear it. Okay, I'm just
following it. Should reach out toWorthington Christian or christ Christian Academy. Okay,
mostly they're great. I agree withStage right, theatrics right and their
(15:07):

be wonderful. They're going to reachout to churches. I know two people
who really might be able to helpyou out it. Really, I really

(16:36):
about your readings? You haven't?Yeah? Yeah, So stage right Theatric
is hosting a series of stage readings. Uh. The entire series is called
Preambles. But the first reading isgoing to be a play called A Crime
of Forgiveness by Lynette Grace, andit is about a woman who's been who
was stabbed brutally by a young manwho also killed his mother. But she
(16:59):
has come to forgive him and befriendhim. So that's her story, and

support him, support theatrics. Don'tlet him get canceled. Thank you,
(17:22):
thank you very much. And itdoesn't sound like a very uplifting kind of
a reading. Well not everything's uplifting, we can't, but you know,
it's funny about all that. Asyou say that. I said it.
Go, you must not really likeyour mother. If someone killed or and
you forgave him, I'm sorry,could you do that? Could you forgive
someone? No? Well, I'dhunt him down and kill them. Okay,
I will this. This woman,Lynette Grace, has made a little
(17:44):
bit of a cottage industry talking aboutthis, and now she's play do you
kill someone I love? Oh?Yeah, it's gonna be ugly. I'm
sorry. I mean, I saidit on air. Take me to court
on that one. But I getwhere you're coming from, you know.
I guess you'd have to really bein that situation. My brother was killed
and they never found the killers,They never found what actually happened. Yeah,
I don't know if I could forgive. I mean, you took my
brother away at twenty two years old. You're the best thing about that story.
(18:07):
Whoever, My son's going to betwenty two in October. Don't think
I don't think I ever killed yourbrother. Every day wakes up saying I'm
going to get busted eventually, eventhough he probably won't. They know in
the back of their mind it's hauntingthem. So there's a little because he
killed somebody's people, as I deliver. One time asked me about guns and
(18:29):
we were debating, and could youkill someone? I said, if you
touched my three year old granddaughter,I would ran a bobcat. And you
know, I don't call nine oneone. I call eight one one before
I dig I don't get a hitpower. How many you know how many?
How many ghosts are probably in hiscloset. No, I've never done
that, but I promise you ifsomeone hurt Cammy, if someone hurt Cammy
(18:52):
or anyway, and someone you onlybring up my daughter because she's a girl
and girls get credited predators more.But I would. I know a lot
of people that. Well, okay, you just you're always worried about.
So what I'm saying is, ifsomeone hurt any anybody, shame on you.
You were thinking children? How dareyou? She's my favorite one?
(19:14):
Anyway? What I'm saying is,I'm just joking. I'm choking. What
I'm saying is, though, let'sSaycy's my favorite out of all your wife.
Yeah, so if you see thegirl that you got kidnapped and killed
and Grove City, you're friends withher mother. I bet I bet she
had nightmares that wanted to get evenwith that guy, and I would probably
Reagan tokes, you're thinking of hermother. I wouldn't pay someone in prison
to visit him, and he wouldhave a bad life in prison. I'm
(19:37):
sorry, that's what I would do. Maybe next week we can discuss this.
Do you forgive no or not?You're ready for murder? But I
don't pay the plight either my opinion, Boots only. All right, we're
gonna talk about Orbs coming up onWhat Matters. That's because something really need
happened while I was on vacation.We'll tell you about that, and MICHAELA
has some stories and we're going toshare it with you on what matters.
