The Socks asked for suggestions from their fans for subjects they could do sketches about. Here are the first two attempts. Eurovision (subtitled and unsubtitled versions) and Undarntale.
Eurovision, which is the only one of the two with any real content to speak of, made me feel like I was getting into the stride of writing. A deadline, and the feeling that there might be an audience for what we come up with, makes all the difference when it comes to getting stuck into a bit of writing. And blue sky thinking, being able to write any old rubbish without the new show being impending yet, is also good fun.
After less than a day on Facebook, the subtitled Eurovision has had 2,800 views, 88 shares, and 9402 people reached*. Which is nice. (Facebook page currently stands on 2627 likes and 2596 follows. 2 weeks ago it was 2608 likes and 2577 follows.)
These are the videos based on Youtube and Facebook comments. Still to come, a video based in their Twitter suggestions. And much more writing to be done.
The Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre do a tiny bit more Shakespeare in Halifax (Oct 26), Wolverhampton (Oct 28), Nottingham (Nov 4), and Goole (Nov 17) this autumn, returning with a brand new show in 2018. Stay tuned.
