Special Thanks to:
My partners Cris and Brennan for helping with script edits, listening to all my show ideas, giving input/critiques, voice acting, manual labor, filming/photographing my show, and most of all: for loving me and keeping me as sane as I can be while I'm in production and performance mode. Without your support and encouragement, my shows would never come together as smoothly as they do.
Rick Fernandez, Cody Novotny, Harry Blackledge and April Blackledge for voice acting in audio recordings used during the show.
Tampa International Fringe Festival directors Trish, Will, and Brianna for putting together the whole festival. Danny, my venue technician for making all my tech cue magic happen when I need it to. All the other Fringe Technicians and Volunteers for the incredible effort that you put into each venue and role.
