Two one-act plays provide a double feature more hilarious than any presented in Hollywood's heyday. Winner of two Tony Awards and a hit Broadway production. The first act, A Day in Hollywood, is a revue of classic Hollywood songs of the 1930s performed by singing and dancing ushers from Grauman's Chinese Theatre, the iconic Hollywood landmark.


The second act, A Night in the Ukraine, is loosely based on The Bear by the great Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. The audience is transported to a Russian mansion and presented with an absurd, fast-paced Marx Brothers comedy that includes rumbas and rubber chickens!

The score of A Day in Hollywood/A Night in the Ukraine combines songs by composer Frank Lazarus and lyricist Dick Vosburgh, three songs by Jerry Herman and many movie musical standards. Company of Fools Artistic Director John Glenn directs a standout cast featuring Taylor Eliason, David Janeski, Audra Honaker, R.L. Rowsey, Melodie Taylor-Maudin, Taylor Telford, Cliff Todd, Aly Wepplo and Samantha White.

His style is unique and reflect the deep influences of being homeschooled and given free creative rein by his parents.
