And Morrow got this money together and shot this, you know, basically a very low budget Hollywood type movie in Chicago.

That was my first.

Wow, I get to play.

And I'm playing the boyfriend to Sue Lyon, you know.

One thing really changed my life in terms of professionally.

I mean, I was banging around, banging around in Chicago doing, like I said, five years I was with the organic theater.

Bleacher Bums was the last play I did with organic because it was a fitting one because it was the play I had conceived.

It was very successful.

We did it in New York.

It ran off Broadway.

Oh, you know that.

It got wonderful reviews.

We just weren't prepared for it because we went in there just to do it for two weeks as a kind of like a showcase.

But it got such good reviews, they said, we've got to keep it open.

But we didn't have enough money to really support it, to do ads and stuff.

So it ran for a while.

But then we had done a tour of the West Coast prior, and my wife and I decided, this was 1977, we said, you know what, let's go back to California.

It wasn't like I wanted to be a movie star or TV star.

I just wanted to be out of the snow.
