And not only that, 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:56.760 but this is the best project yet. And another, you know, 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.760 something that moves the needle and something that people say. 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:01.440 Hey, this is very unique. 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:05.120 It's very different, and in our industry, you know, to 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.040 come out with something that is unique and. 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:09.880 It's a huge fee, it's a huge feet. 0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:12.120 Yeah, and yeah, well we'll get right into it since 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:15.959 we're already teasing it up. It's called Savor and as 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.480 in like the the tasting notes of savor this wine 0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:24.040 or savor this food is the term, and so Savor 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:28.720 is going to be kind of after Ours Cabaret in 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:32.880 Napa Valley. Explain what we're doing. 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.480 So Saber app to Ours is a wine tasting show, 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:39.840 but we do our tastings a little different at saber. 0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.360 Every performance you see at our show in the evening 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:46.400 is inspired by the very wine that you will be 0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:50.320 drinking throughout the evening. You get four distinctly different servings 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:56.440 that are complemented by distinctly different performances throughout that tasting experience. 0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.400 So you guys are gonna pair the dance with the wine. 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.960 Yeah, that's the relationship that our creative director and the 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:08.200 creator of the show, Mark swan Hart built, And and 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:11.040 and kind of that was the inception of the idea 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:13.040 for this is he was having a glass of wine, 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.800 which is where kind of he has most of his muses, 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:20.080 and he kind of, you know, he writes most of 0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:21.880 his shows over a glass of wine, and in this 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.320 particular moment, he was like, why don't I just write 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:28.359 the show around wine? Yeah? And yeah, No. It was 0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.120 an amazing process to even witness. 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.120 It was forty years ago that he called us and said, 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.640 and you know, the project back then was called Tasting Notes. 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.760 It was very on point. It was very simple and 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:41.119 clear and unique. And again it was we got hoped 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.359 and we we couldn't wait to see it. It's pretty 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.240 much exactly as it wasn't back then in his head 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:50.080 and to see it come to fruition. Not only that, 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.719 but you know the response that we got trying to 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.400 we needed the wine, right and this this is the pouring. 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.160 You know, we're talking about three hundred people's seats and 0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:05.320 this is four glasses per the flights, four poors by 0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:07.320 the way, just a side note, you don't have to drink. 0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:09.719 It's an add on, right, obviously it's at first. 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.640 It's a show, but also this experience, right, Yeah, the 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:15.480 seating is not a precedium seating, it's not a beer seating. 0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:19.200 It's more about four tops for tabletopund tables. 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.440 Our stage were allowed ourselves. 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:25.200 Creativity of just like let's just build stage out into 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:28.320 the audience and you know, dancing between the tables and 0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:31.680 have this experience for a moment where it's happening around you. 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.560 So you know, there was a lot of very interesting 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.599 components of the show that we never got to play 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:37.280 with before. 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:41.560 And again, the response from the local winemakers was amazing. 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:46.920 We got two different It's been incredible to see that 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:52.320 we're welcomed here. Kind of nervous for the response, but 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.360 so far soft opening, responsive exactly. 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:58.800 How well and wine is so experiential it's you taste it, 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.200 and it's always been are depending on who you're with, 0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.640 what you're doing, and it does take you to places. 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:07.600 And it's interesting because I'm a big wine guy and 0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:09.839 you work with a chef, and the chef wants to 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:12.599 taste the wine and that will take his palate to 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.160 what he wants to serve you. I'm interested. A. Are 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.840 you guys wine guys? And B do you taste the 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:23.160 wine and then choreographed to what you have felt from 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.360 the wine? Or do you just kind of take the 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:28.400 general Hey, it's Spanish, so we're going to do a. 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:34.480 No. First of all, I mean, again, I enjoy wine. 0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:38.520 I'm not as as well versed as you sound like 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.000 you are. I mean you've already used like five words 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:46.359 and I just learned last week. But you know, I 0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:49.719 think that the relate the connection between my part because 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:52.359 you'll talk, you know, on his own behalf. For me, 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:59.440 the relationship stems from It's what you said. It's wine 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:02.960 brings people together and it allows people to you know, 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:09.240 it's not just about getting intoxicated. It's about having an experience, 0:07:09.440 --> 0:07:11.840 an experience where you raise a glass. So for us 0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:14.680 and our family, we always raise the glass, not to 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:18.040 get drunk, but to commemorate each other. This is how 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.760 we you know, we have a moment to connect and 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:24.880 reflect and kind of you know, congregate. 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:26.680 Over over, celebrate the moment. 0:07:27.440 --> 0:07:29.680 Celebrate the moment, you know. And so I'm like, wow, 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:33.080 we built a kind of a Mama Mia inspired essence 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.680 about the fact that we are coming together, that theater 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:40.920 feels like one giant party, and so I'm more from 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:45.200 that element, really excited about the show. I love that element, 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:47.000 the fact that I get to be in the audience 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:50.840 on stage around you know. But as far as our 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.000 passion for wine, Max will take over. 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:55.880 Oh no, I think our passion is for like I 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:59.679 keep going back to just human interaction and people's service. 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:04.120 We started with service industry, you know, twelve eighteen. We're 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:07.480 in the restaurant just presenting this while people are eating, 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:08.640 they still having dinner. 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:12.320 There's also a sophistication about it that I think pairs 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:16.840 well with our essence, believe it or not. 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.720 You know, hair aside, Hey, I like you use the 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:21.559 word pairing weller parents. 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:27.040 And as far as the creative, you know, I think 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.640 it isn't as simple as we taste the wine and 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:34.960 then we choreographed what happened, was Mark Swanheart, the director, Yes, 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:38.600 he tasted the wine and he envisioned the story out 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:41.840 of it, right, because again, wine tells stories and people 0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:45.920 tell their story overwined. And so there's a few pieces that, 0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:50.520 first of all, are such a riot. There's a few 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:55.520 pieces that are incredibly heartbreaking and heartwarming. Right, there's going 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:58.719 to be a lot of laughter, a lot of impression, 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:03.199 but also a few tiers just because again it's something 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.680 that's timeless and it's something that you share with loved ones, 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:10.640 and you know loved ones go and you know you 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:12.800 stay in that bottle of wine will remind you of 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:16.040 a lot of the shared stories. So I think that 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:19.319 was more of the pattern. It was what can we 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:25.120 invite the audience to experience to this selection of wine, 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.839 and what kind of stories can we share that our 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:29.680 universally shared with everyone else. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:32.960 Max has never met a shirt that he couldn't take off. 0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:37.080 Will he have a shirt at any point during these shows? 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:41.120 Yes, that's a great way to position that that question, 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:42.959 but no mystery. 0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:47.720 Yes, And by the way, talk about real you know, 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:52.200 real estate is everything, right, location, location, location, You guys 0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:54.120 have the greatest location in naw But you're going to 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:56.960 be right downtown, right on Main Street and first in 0:09:57.000 --> 0:10:00.760 the middle of it all at above jam Seller, I believe, 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:02.040 is a location. 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:05.319 We are we are in cells. 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:07.320 Okay, you're in jam Seller so just down from the 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:11.000 Archer Hotel, which is spectacular. It is on the main drag. 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.560 Talking about jam Seller's the tasting room. We're talking about 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:16.920 jam Seller's ballroom that's above the. 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:21.240 Lunar right, so the theater itself. Yes, And I just 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:23.960 want to piggyback that that was the whole point. Hey, 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:28.080 there's wine show idea. Let's just simplified. And that was 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:31.200 you know, this conversation happened four years ago and since 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:32.080 then it was like, well. 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:36.080 This has to be in in a wine producer, I 0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:42.080 mean show. Yeah, it will be like just different, you know, 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.439 a little different what I had to go straight to 0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:45.280 hard liquor show. 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:50.000 But this was so unique and you know, and it 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:54.160 took it took a mind of an individual who's a producer, 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:57.400 you know, who had the vision Lee Marshall with magic 0:10:57.400 --> 0:10:59.880 space and the way they approached it and it was 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:01.640 together in lightning speed. 0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:02.320 I'm telling you. 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:07.120 Once you get people that get it together at one table. 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:10.199 It goes fast, and so we took. 0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:12.280 A long time trying to get here and in a 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:16.880 lightning preproduction speed. I am now a resident of Napo, 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:21.240 so is Valve with his family, and we're so grateful. 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.200 The local community saw on the show a couple of times. 0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:29.040 They can't say enough about it. And this was our goal. 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:32.360 Pay a marsh to the farmer, paying marsh to the the. 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.600 Process, process that the grape, make sure that they are 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:37.839 not offended by what we're doing with it. 0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:41.640 And that was exactly two of the greatest performers. We know, 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:43.280 you guys, no doubt, are going to put on an 0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:46.760 amazing show that people will love. And just selfishly, I 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:49.560 find it perfect because when you go to NAPA, obviously 0:11:49.600 --> 0:11:51.840 there's wine tasting and there's great food and yet but 0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:55.680 there's really nothing to do later. There's nothing, as you say, 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.840 after hours. So what a perfect position to give people 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:00.640 a little something to do with the end of the day. 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.800 Thank you, And and I just wanted to mention you know, 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:05.720 first of all, the theater used to be the Napbook 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:10.360 Opera House, so this isn't like the location is grant. 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.920 We built it specifically for the show, so we extended 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:18.439 the stage.

Ended up sleeping the 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:55.840 same bad as we always do it. I wouldn't have 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:56.600 it any other way. 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:59.800 And uh, and that's literally us and it's our relationship. 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:01.600 We just went on a trip with my brother. We 0:17:01.640 --> 0:17:03.520 shared a room. It's like I wanted to be with 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:06.240 my brother. It's like it's my boy, it's my best friend. 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:10.639 But yeah, it's as far as working with our significant others, 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:14.680 you know that there's an incredible amount of respect for them. 0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:20.840 As their own artists and entities. And yeah, it's again 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:25.320 our close proximity is we've also been not challenging for them, 0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:27.919 but it's also something different for them to see. But 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:31.440 that is all part of now our little world. You know, 0:17:31.600 --> 0:17:34.439 everybody understands that. And there are things that I do 0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:38.200 with Jen that I love and we do together. There 0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:42.399 are things that we also do separately together, which is 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:47.199 dancing with the stars. You know that is also you know, 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:50.960 we're close by, but we have our own responsibilities and 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:53.879 our own kind of responsibilities to our partners. There are 0:17:53.920 --> 0:17:56.639 things that Max and Peter do together, and there are 0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:59.280 things that Max and I do together that our wives 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.280 love and support, and. 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:05.520 These these are different, I feel like to me, there 0:18:05.560 --> 0:18:08.399 are different products. The maxim bell is one and the 0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:12.240 Bell and Jen is a beautiful different dance product. And 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:15.920 you know, relationship with Peter and maxis have their own 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:17.840 sort of like line going on. 0:18:17.960 --> 0:18:19.080 But I love that we're. 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:21.760 Still doing it together and we're kind of finding our niches. 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:27.119 We're not with floral ident two identical couples. We identical 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.359 in dancing in the world that we're from and where 0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:33.119 we came from. Like you would think, right it's pretty different. 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:37.120 We were well because there are a lot of similarities, 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:39.640 but there's also a lot of really important differences, and 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:43.159 I think figured out a way to support those differences. 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:45.360 Would you want your kids to dance? Would you push 0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:46.639 them in that professional world? 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.200 My kids dancing? Shy? 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.159 You know a year ago you asked me that question, 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:55.680 and and and you know there's a story how he said, 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:57.200 you know you're doing a lot of things. 0:18:57.240 --> 0:18:59.080 Well, don't you want to do I asked him.

And he drags Peter to 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:33.200 West Hollywood with Melbourne, so she has to shlip every 0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.920 Saturday for that one class that he just wanted to do. 0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:40.120 He just had to recital, and I was like, we're 0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:41.720 watching his ear two year smile. 0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:42.760 I can't believe that. 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.880 You know, this has been my baby and now it's 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:50.520 this person and he has his own track line and 0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:51.439 he knows where he's. 0:19:51.280 --> 0:19:51.760 Going with it. 0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:52.440 So cool. 0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:55.480 I want to give it to him to choose, like 0:19:55.560 --> 0:19:58.000 with our parents who are trying to tell us, you know, 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.520 he has his tendence, he's got his soccer, his dance, 0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:03.960 he's got his academics, you know, searching whatever.
