The Guys

Tampa Firefighters Museum

Jobsite is proud to support the Tampa Firefighters Museum through a special one-night fundraiser performance of Anne Nelson’s The Guys.

Days after 9/11, Joan (Roz Potenza), a New York City editor, is asking the same question Americans are asking everywhere: “what can I possibly do?” Then, she meets Nick (Paul Potenza), an FDNY captain who lost most of his men in the attack. He needs someone with the tools to help him craft the eulogies. The afternoon meeting turns to evening, as Nick and Joan recall these ordinary guys: their humor, their faults, their passions. In the process, they discover the possibilities of friendship, their shared love for the unconquerable spirit of the city, and of course, the tango. They realize that the common thread that made these men extraordinary is the same merit that can help unite and heal us all: brotherhood. The Guys is based on a true story.

Tickets to this special event at Tampa Firefighters Museum are $30 and include two drink tickets, fees apply to all sales.
