Murder! Intrigue! Espresso! BARISTAS, a dark comedy written by Evan Twohy, will open up shop for a World Premiere at the New York International Fringe Festival. The production runs for 5 performances at The Kraine Theater, 85 East 4th Street on August 15 at 2pm, August 18 at 9 pm, August 19 at 11pm, August 25 at 2pm, and August 28 at 7pm.
On slacker Camille's first day as the newest barista at Kåffe, a corporate chain coffee shop, she butts heads with straight-laced colleague Ramon. That is until they discover their mutual obsession with infamous serial killers and the vicious details of their ghastly crimes. As they relive the stories of history's wickedest paramours, Camille and Ramon discover that amongst the blenders, Splenda, and coffee beans they might find love . . . or at least a new partner in crime. With three pumps of comedy and an extra shot of horror, Baristas is one blend that will certainly be popular with this year's Fringe-goers.Videos
