SOLO SUNDAYS - 11/8/15
Hilarious, Heartbreaking & Provocative Solo Performances
L O U K I P I L M A N ----------------------------------------- "Wiseguy. Rake. Druggist. Dad."
Some folks say you shouldn't Google yourself. But nobody said anything about Googling one's father. So when Lou's wife did a search on his long-deceased dad, a newspaper article half a century old appeared, telling a story Lou had never heard. A securities heist in suburban Pittsburgh? An arrest by the FBI in Brussels? Of a pharmacist from Queens? Connecting the dots will surely require more than a click of the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button.
B E T H M C L A U G H L I N -------------------------------------- "Cocky"
Beth and her father are in a backyard with Gunnar Gunheim, near downtown Novato. One of these men is a stranger to her. And it's not Gunnar Gunheim.
J U L I E G I E S E K E ------------------------ "The Love Interest"
Julie wants to be cast as the love interest. Her casting agent has a bigger role for her. The role of a lifetime. A role she has been preparing for all her life. Why does it feel like a consolation prize?
L A U R A H E D L I ------------------------ "Overtime"
He scrambles eggs. She prepares coffee. They take their places at the table, morning domesticity on the Upper East Side. Except that it's Saturday and their boss makes three--this is her apartment. They are there on her time. Laura is a journalist required to help write her book, he's an exercise physiologist obliged to help her get in shape. The boss has no idea he is seeing Laura on the side. "When are you getting a girlfriend?" she asks him. Laura's leg touches his under the table and she shoots him a look. He wants her silence. Her boss wants her compliance. Both want her company. Laura's losing control--how much longer can she keep it together?
