Kimball Allen Debuts One-Man Show BE HAPPY BE MORMON at NYC's United Solo Festival Tonight

The Fabulous Black Sheep, Kimball Allen, debuts his Off-Broadway One-Man Show "Be Happy Be Mormon" at United Solo Festival, NYC.

Seattle based Playwright/Performer, KIMBALL B. ALLEN, collaborates with director, EMMA HASSETT, for their first Off-Broadway premiere as part of the official selection of 2014 United Solo Theatre Festival. "Be Happy Be Mormon" is a voyeuristic look into the childhood of a Bambi-loving vegetarian, ballet slipper wearing, Diet Coke drinking gay Mormon Boy Scout.

Allen's one-man show will debut tonight, September 24, 2014 at 7:30 PM at Theatre Row, 410 West 42nd Street, NYC. A Seattle preview of the play will take place on September 4, 2014 at 7:30 PM at Calamus Auditorium, Gay City, 517 East Pike Street, Seattle, WA. Washington State Senator, Marko Liias, will conduct a panel Q&A discussion following the September 4th engagement.

Born into a large conservative Idaho family he doesn't relate to, Kimball Allen chronicles his upbringing as a fabulous black sheep through colorful narration, private home movies, songs, dance and the occasional acrobatics in this hysterically tragic 60 minute performance. "Be Happy Be Mormon" is recommended for adults, theatre and the LGBTQA community. Playwright/Performer: Kimball Allen. Director: Emma Hassett. Producer: Scott Wells. Voice Talent: Keely Wolter. Marketing: Erin Schiedler.
