The art isn't only what Jim has written... it is casting the right people to perform it. Jim should cast the right people... not have a contest to let the public cast it. If you had held a casting show to cast DOTV and it was between Mikey Boy, Steve Barton, and John Travolta Steve Barton would have come in third. Creating Art should not be about promotion and the casting is part of the creative process.
