About the Show

In this world premiere solo comedy, a NYC cabbie must come to terms with his past, his dad, and his unfinished college degree. Written and performed by Emmy-winning 'Late Night with David Letterman' writer Ted Greenberg.

It's December 18, 1987. Ted is driving a NYC taxi with one screaming deadline in front of him: He must turn in a paper by midnight or his long-cherished, degree-pending status at Harvard will be snatched away forever. It will take a wild ride through NYC and his past, and a confrontation with his financial-titan father before Ted’s able to come to grips with an eight-to-ten-pager on Edmund Spenser’s 'The Fairie Queene.'

Great acting, Banal, Cliched, Slow

See it if you have interest in a slice of life-experiences of taxi driver

Don't see it if you are looking for good humor, entertainment or a learning experience

Quirky, Biting

See it if you want to understand Ted's father Ace who was a complicated, intriguing and basically good person.

Don't see it if you don't like to see someone who wants an evening of scores with his classmates who have succeeded in conventional ways.

Disappointing, Slow

See it if I found it very slow. Although it was interesting I didn't think it was done the best way. There were a few times I wanted to leave.

Don't see it if If you don't like a one man show. That is slow and not funny

Cliched, Disappointing, Clever, Funny

See it if you like Ted Greenberg and his comedy. He does well and has funny parts but it is not as solid a night as I was hoping.

Don't see it if you don't like solo shows or want something that builds more strongly on it's topic. Good topic but doesn't live up to expectation.
