EXPLOITATION Identify Candid ‘Embraceable’ Twosomes 2 Ways to Work Photograph Stunt: |) NEWSPAPER: Cooperating paper assigns roving candid photographer to take unposed shots of local twosomes at least two weeks before opening. Pictures snapped at random—on street, dance floor, in theatre entrance, restaurant, public vehicle.

Readers identify themselves at box-office and win guest seats to your show. 2) LOBBY: Invite amateur candid cameramen to snap as many candids of embraceable twosomes as they can—all such photos to be turned in at boxoffice no later than one week before opening. Post all photos on lobby board. Set up poll box nearby and invite patrons to vote for the most "'Embraceable You Two FASHION MAT some. Best photos win prizes.
