Bob Fitch comments on Scotty:
“I see on your lineup for February the 3rd that you have Scottie Watson on Improv for Magic. He’s a terrific teacher. He has classes in NYC…basically that are free with a donation. That’s unheard of. I can’t recommend him enough. It should be a terrific evening. Its fun…and I think will be very helpful.
Best regards.
