Enjoyable one man show

See it if you like good old story telling with few props and no set. A very New York story

Don't see it if you expect elaborate set and custumes

Funny, Quirky, Relevant, Delightful, Clever

See it if you are lucky enough to live in a rent regulated apartment in NYC.

Don't see it if you are a trust fund kid or a wall street wunderkind.

Clever, Funny, Intelligent, Relevant, Entertaining

See it if You'll enjoy a NYC based tale. I'm usually biased against one-man shows but this delivered.

Don't see it if You dislike one-man shows and don't want to take a chance. You'll hate a story about life in NYC.

Clever, Entertaining, Funny, Relevant

See it if you enjoy "Fringe" shows; you are entertained by a (somewhat) sad story about a man who learns to play the rent control system in NYC

Don't see it if one man shows are not your thing; silly impersonations annoy you; you have no tolerance for "Fringe" type entertainment.

Quirky, Funny, Clever, Entertaining

See it if you're looking for a good laugh, an "only in New York" story.

Don't see it if you don't like one-person shows, you want a high-minded story.

Ambitious, Disappointing, Overrated

See it if you want to support an actor who is industrious enough to write his own vehicle. Although the plot was intriguing, the characters were not.

Don't see it if You like sympathetic characters. If you don't want to travel to Astoria Queens for a show. Read more

See it if You love side-splitting shows, and can relate to finding housing in NYC! Fantastic impressions and a fabulous story teller!

Don't see it if You aren’t crazy about intimate one-man shows with small sets
