Hello listeners of Missing Richard Mercer! It’s Tom Hogan here, coming to you in June of 2021. It’s been 3 years since we received Richard Mercer’s blessing to do this show, since then a lot has happened. I got a dog, for instance - her name is Jesse and she’s a staffy. And there’s a global pandemic.
Despite all this, Bonnie and I are currently touring our theatre show - Love Song Dedications (without Richard Mercer). We talked about it during the podcast, but if you want to see Bonnie and I dance and talk and laugh and run around in circles, as we try to find the objectively best love song of all time, you can do it!
It was going to be a four month national tour, but we’ve had to shorten it due to the tumultuous times we’re in. Head to MissingRichardMercer.com for a full list of venues and dates, and links to buy tickets.
Tell your friends to come along! And make sure you say hi.
