Ken.
In Sunday's paper of the Star Tribune in Minnesota there was an article about finding deals for broadway shows etc. I don't know if you were interviewed or what but you were mentioned in the article and you mentioned broadway space and a couple of other sites. I enjoyed reading it =]

hey Ken, just a new comer to broadwayspace and the whole broadway world dropping by to say hello. My name is Tori and i'm a sophomore at a performing arts high school and i want to be a writer someday and maybe a writer, director or producer (maybe even a performer!) I was just wondering if you had any advice for someone who hopes to achieve one of those goals.
