ACTING UP: MOB SCENE
reviewjournal.com: "'The Soprano's Last Supper' is an interactive dinner show in which a dozen actors flirt with, insult and threaten people who pay $89-$500 for the privilege (and the 4-course Italian spread)."

Management of this sort of project must require attention to so many different issues than we are used to. There's all the crowd control due to audience interaction, all the catering issues, and all the issues around the audience interacting with the set. After all, if the audience is going to be in the middle of the set, it probably has to meet ADA!
This sounds like a really fun, however impractical, idea. I can definitely see plenty of people who would pay rediculous amounts of money to be insulted by these characters while they eat. I was never quite sure why people like abuse like that . . . The impracticality is still a big deal though. Like Steven said, the audience interaction is a serious issue. Too many unexpected things could happen, and as you know, I "like to have a plan." -Natasha Alejandro
