Playwrights Jeremy Kehoe and Paul Elliott have teamed up to showcase back-to-back one-act comedies in “Talkin’ It to the Streets”, opening at The Lounge Theatre in Hollywood starting January 13. Kehoe's “Car Play” (Directed by Paul Messinger) tells the tale of two middle-of-the-road castaways navigating pothole-laden lives: Jill (Lori Allen Thomas), whose ability to suck the color from a rainbow h
as pushed her therapist (Darice Richman Cooper) off the psychological ledge, and Greg (Sean Welch), whose existential itch has left him scratching at the oracle of Gin and Tonic -- to the chagrin of his bartender, Vinny (Garrett Hughes). With a Monday-morning drizzle icing their lives, Greg presses the accelerator of change, sending the two on a collision course for a partly cloudy future. Elliott’s “Ledge, Ledger, and the Legend” (Directed by Paul Messinger) – recently listed as one of the twenty-five most produced one-act plays in the last 20 years -- follows the story of Peter. "Who knew Suicide could be so much fun?"
“Talkin’ It to the Streets” opens January 13 and runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. through January 22. Tickets are available at Brown Paper Tickets: http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/212531
