839 people. Or as I used to count them, 1678 eyeballs. Opening Night of HEIST @thegrandlondon and this is the biggest audience to ever see a play of mine. A big thank you to @theblcklst @WarbyParker @franklinleonard for their amazing support in the creation of this show.

Earlier today, my wife finds a photo of me from 5 years ago and gasps, Wow you looked so young! Three hours later, the kind cashier-assassin at Shoppers gestures questioningly (accusingly?!) at the sign below. If anyone needs me I’ll be enjoying the early bird special at Denny’s.

Tonight’s the M.Night. I’ve waited 15 and 13 years to show them my favorite movie of all time. Hoping they are as dazzled and inspired as I was the first time I saw it. @MNightShyamalan

“I’m thrilled to be speaking with students who are exploring these two worlds at a much earlier age than I did.” Join @ArunLakraOU next week when he visits @McMasterU as part of a @SocratesAtMac and #Artsci collaboration.

The first word she could spell was Ovechkin. (At least that’s how I remember it.) Next thing you know, my little girl is the Calgary Spelling Bee champ. Congrats Siya! @rundlecollege @RCElementary
