It worked once. It’ll work again, right?

PRODUCER’S PERSPECTIVE: "Lightning in a bottle is hard to capture once.
So, when people try to use the same bottle to catch another bolt, I always get nervous (this is one of the reasons I won’t be coming out with another interactive show anytime soon)."

This is really good advice. What annoys me about many revivals is their lack of originality. Many revivals fail because they try to "cause lighting to strike twice" This should cause people to be more creative and think about what they are doing and how to improve it. As companies grow, they need to be constantly pushing themselves to change and improve otherwise the art will be stale.
