LOS ANGELES, March 26 (UPI) -- One of the producers of Charlie Sheen's upcoming road tour says the performances will have some structure to them and will even be rehearsed in advance.

Joey Scoleri told People magazine that Sheen has been working with a coach who has been helping him polish his seemingly rambling, improvisational style into a presentation that includes video segments and interaction with the audience.

"He also hired a music director," Scoleri said, adding that ticket holders will see "a rehearsed show."

Sheen is taking to the stage as a forum for the bare-knuckle shellacking he has administered to the producers of his now-canceled hit series "Two and a half men." His tirades to radio stations and other media outlets are now being channeled into a tour that has already sold out some venues.

"Charlie has been furiously putting together his show," a source close to the actor told People. "He's been working with actors, directors and writers. He is really working around the clock."

Sheen has also been busy on the home front. TMZ.com said Saturday the actor has closed on a new $7 million house in an exclusive Los Angeles development.

TMZ said that former baseball star Lenny Dykstra helped him secure financing. The Web site also noted that Dykstra declared bankruptcy in 2009 and lost his own $17 million home to foreclosure.
