  In the US alone, the arts are a $763 billion sector whose 100,000+ organizations serve almost every community in the nation. There's no reason arts organizations should struggle to make ends meet. Running your arts organization like a business is your path forward to: 
   
   
   
  ● Grow audiences and keep them coming back again 
   
   
   
  ● Make our organizations more inclusive 
   
   
   
  ● Get younger attendees in the seats and on the donor rolls 
   
   
   
  ● Continue to create the art we love—without the stress of figuring out how to afford it 
   
   
   
  Just because arts organizations are non-profits doesn't mean they shouldn't make money; it means the money they make goes back to fund the mission—whether that's music, visual arts, theatre, dance, or one of many other mediums that enrich our lives. 
   
   
   
  The for-profit world knows how to achieve success across customer engagement, user experience, company culture, the subscription economy, technology and media, new revenue streams, and brand relevance. Run It Like a Business provides a powerful, proven framework to help all arts organizations revitalize their economic engines and ultimately serve the arts and its patrons.

  This program is read by the author with a special appearance from his mom.An intimate and light-hearted memoir by viral sensation and three-time Emmy-nominated musical comedian Randy Rainbow that takes readers through his life—the highs, the lows, the lipstick, the pink glasses, and the show tunes.Randy Rainbow, the man who conquered the Internet with a stylish pair of pink glasses, an inexhaustible knowledge of Broadway musicals, and the most gimlet-eyed view of American politics this side of Mark Twain finally tells all in Playing with Myself, a memoir sure to cause more than a few readers to begin singing one of his greatest hits like “A Spoonful of Clorox” or “Cover Your Freakin’ Face.”As Randy has said, “There’s so much fake news out there about me. I can’t wait to set the record straight and finally give people a peek behind the green screen.” And set the record straight he does. Playing with Myself is a first-hand account of the journey that led Randy Rainbow from his childhood as the over-imaginative, often misunderstood little boy who carried a purse in the second grade to his first job on Broadway as the host at Hooters and on to the creation of his trademark comedy character. In chapters titled “Pajama Bottoms” (a look back at the days when he wore pajama bottoms on his head to pretend he was Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz), “Yes, It’s My Real Name, Shut Up!” (no explanation necessary...) and “Pink Glasses” (a rose-colored homage to his favorite accessory), Playing with Myself is a memoir that answers the question “Can an introverted musical theatre nerd with a MacBook and a dream save the world, one show tune at a time?”A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press.

  THE GODFATHER 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  The Godfather is a 1972 American crime drama directed by Francis Ford Coppola, based on Mario Puzo’s bestselling novel. The film follows the powerful Corleone family, led by patriarch Vito Corleone, a Mafia don in post-World War II New York. As Vito’s youngest son, Michael, reluctantly becomes involved in the family's criminal empire, the story explores themes of power, loyalty, revenge, and the complexities of family dynamics. The film delves into the moral struggles faced by its characters as they navigate the dangerous world of organized crime, blending crime thriller with deep emotional and ethical conflicts. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Marlon Brando used a mouthpiece made by a dentist to create the distinct look of Don Vito Corleone. He had originally stuffed his cheeks with cotton for his audition to achieve the "bulldog" look.” 
    
  “The cat held by Marlon Brando in the opening scene was a stray that Coppola found on the Paramount lot. It wasn't in the script, and the cat’s purring muffled Brando’s dialogue, so most of his lines had to be re-recorded.” 
    
  “There was significant tension between Francis Ford Coppola and Paramount Pictures, with the studio often trying to replace Coppola due to delays, overspending, and casting issues. However, Coppola finished the film ahead of schedule and under budget.” 
    
  “Marlon Brando improvised the smack that Don Vito gives Johnny Fontane in the movie, and Al Martino's confused reaction was genuine. James Caan later said that Martino didn't know whether to laugh or cry.”
