by David De Almo,
directed by Max Friedman;
starring David De Almo.
The Jewel Box of the Workshop

November 1 @ 9:00pm
From one of the producers of Mike Birbiglia's "Thank God For Jokes" and "Neal Brennan: 3 Mics," and the star of that "Monsters Inside Me" episode where that amoeba eats that girl's brain, comes the unlikely story of a data analyst who gave up comfort in suburbia to become a Theatrical Producer overnight. Believe it or not ... it has a happy ending. No, really. It does. We promise.
After being work-shopped at The Culture Project at the Lynn Redgrave Theater and premiering at Theatre Row's United Solo Festival, David De Almo, a member of Actors Equity, brings his uproarious one-man tale to MITF. He has co-produced several other one-person stage tales including Colin Quinn: The New York Story, and Hasan Minhaj: Homecoming King, and currently producing Chris Gethard: Career Suicide, presented by Judd Apatow.
Starting with their Autumn Arts, the Midtown International Theatre Festival will also serve as a place for artists emerging from colleges and special programs to enter into the professional world with abundant support from an experienced artistic and academic advisory. Now, established professionals and the next generation can join in.
While the skyline currently glitters with theatre festivals, there was a time when the Midtown International Theatre Festival was one of only two! John Chatterton has set the gold standard for presenting new and exciting independent theatrical works in New York.
