Culture Project presents
THE JUNKET
written and performed by Mike Albo
directed by David Schweizer
ONLY 2 WEEKS LEFT!
Performance calendar: http://web.ovationtix.com/
Lynn Redgrave Theater, 45 Bleecker St, New York, NY
Show information: http://cultureproject.org/
Writer/performer/comedian Mike Albo presents his newest solo show The Junket, about what happens when your freelance job turns out to be your worst enemy. In this hilarious, harrowing, thinly-veiled tale, Mike gets a freelance gig to pen a column for the country's most influential newspaper. It’s a dream come true, and after years of low pay, Albo thinks he may finally be able to afford NYC’s new luxury loft lifestyle (he even gets a new stylish boyfriend). But after he goes on an over-the-top, ill-fated press junket, he becomes a gossip item on the city’s snarkiest, meanest blog, and is thrown into an acrimonious war between old and new media. The Junket is a much needed investigation into the compromised state of modern journalism, provoking questions about how we get our news and who gives it to us.
Helmed by acclaimed theater director David Schweizer, with video effects by Larry Shea, The Junket is a wildly funny but emotionally painful account of New York's backbiting media scene, the inner workings of the fashion industry, and what it takes to survive as a writer in our chattering, challenging, increasingly unaffordable culture.
CRITICAL PRAISE FOR THE JUNKET
"A densely packed rumination on professional ethics, love, self-delusion, and the ambiguity of artistic integrity. It is unambiguously hilarious." - NYtheaternow.com
"Albo delivered belly laughs with astonishing frequency. Clad all in white, he used his training as a dancer to fill Dixon Place’s expansive, open floor stage." – Stagetology
