Video of the Week: “Fame” Flash Mob in Nashville
An emerging way to get people to pay attention to what you’re doing in this day and age is to form a flash mob, record the event, and then post it online for the world to see. Sometimes they are just for fun and other times they’re to promote events, products, services, etc. Some of the more famous flash mobs are prompted by the guys at Improv Everywhere, but now even organizations like cable TV channel A&E have used it to promote their reality show with MC Hammer.
Just recently, the Circle Players here in Nashville used a flash mob to promote their upcoming performance of Fame. Enjoy!
[HT to Steve for recommending the video this week.]

What did the do to let folks know it was an advertisement for their upcoming show?
