In this week's Gambit, there is a story about some guy from the Porky's movies, Roger Wilson, who is working towards making Canal Street in New Orleans into a theatre district- like Broadway. The idea is that it will be a place where shows are previewed before they go to Broadway. So before a show like Cats is seen on Broadway, the people will see it here first and how well it does will determine whether or not its worth the cost of production on Broadway. Very cool. Wilson will try to get the same type of tax incentive legislation that the film industry now has, to be used for theatre productions. I think he can do it. If he can get Christy Turlington to marry him with that mug, he can do anything.

Yeah, must be another Christy Turlington. The supermodel Turlington is married to someone named Edward Burns. But Porky's was funny, hehehehe
