Waiting For My Growth Spurt
Written and Performed by: Jason David
Directed by: Mary Claire Dunn
Dates: April 25th -May 11th
Metropolis Port is thrilled to present the country’s first professional one-man show written and performed solely by a 13 year-old boy! Jason’s humor is endearing, shocking, and downright witty. The budding comedian examines his longtime wait for puberty, his obsession with Jessica Simpson, and growing up in a Jewish-Catholic household with a mother who wants him to slow down. It will run in rep with Frank Ingrasciotta’s one-man show below.
Blood Type: RAGU!
Written, Directed, and Performed by: Frank Giano Ingrasciotta
Dates: April 25th -May 11th
Fresh from his acclaimed New York run, we are proud to welcome actor/playwright (& Yankee!), Frank Ingrasciotta and his one-man play to Metropolis Port. Frank brings to life over 20 characters, some of whom you may even recognize, in a sometimes unpredictable yet always rich journey as he navigates between two cultures. Be carried away on this humorous, poignant, and courageous ride... but only after you’ve had your pasta. (with RAGU of course!)
2008-2009 Season Announced Soon!
