About This Show

A play about an artist’s desperate attempt to hold onto his identity in the mist of being swallowed by the culture industry of Hollywood. It’s a theatrical thesis of the origin’s of the work of art of an actor.

With a reoccurring dream of dying in Hollywood haunting him and the reality of watching another lonely birthday rush him towards the wrong end of Thirty, Alfonso Trevor has come to terms that his passion is his curse, that Hollywood is a land of artistic nihilism and if he wants to salvage anything remotely resembling a “normal” life his only option is to head back home to his mother in Detroit. But after the opportunity of a lifetime grants him everything he’s ever wanted he banishes his mother in Detroit to wallow in the hedonism of Hollywood. The only question is, will he be able to escape the purgatory of celebritism and if so, at what cost.
