They Call Me Mister Fry

The award winning and critically acclaimed They Call Me Mister Fry returns to
Los Angeles!

*WINNER OF FOUR FESTIVAL AWARDS
*2 COMMAND PERFORMANCES BEFORE DEPT. OF ED. IN DC
*3 MONTHS OFF BROADWAY
*ENDORSED BY STEPHEN COLBERT

Critics call it a "hysterical, yet tear breaking" TRUE story of a first year teacher teaching fifth-grade in a Los Angeles inner city classroom. The story focuses on his relationship with two challenging students and his journey through the bowels of big city bureaucracy, but also his efforts to find his place in the world in this beautiful story about transformation, redemption, the fragility of life, and what we think our purpose is.
