Quit the Road, Jack

A new comedy by Jerry Polner about the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). NAFTA? Well, when the son of a divorced and miserable couple of burnt-out ex-musicians runs away from home to join up with the immigrant worker rights movement, mom and dad are forced to travel across North America together to find their boy. Jerry Polner’s work, much of which takes a skewed look at serious issues (including a romantic comedy about the founding of the Federal Reserve), has won several awards at the Planet Connections Theater Festivity, and been produced by Workshop Theater, Manhattan Theatre Source, Brooklyn Playwrights Collective and NY Madness, and published by Samuel French, Next Stage Press and IndieTheaterNow.
