Naperville closes; Can We Talk opens
That’s a wrap for Naperville with Slant Theatre Project. Brett had an incredible run playing the anxious but eager manager of a Caribou Coffee. Head to the REVIEWS section to check out the press for the show; we were a New York Times Critics Pick!
And up next….
Now it’s onto Can We Talk?, by Jordan Seavey. Can We Talk? is a hilarious, biting, raunchy new play in which Brett plays the one-and-only Joan Rivers who has returned to help guide her daughter Melissa through a slump. Yup, I will be Joan. In full Joan attire. And makeup. And wig. It’s been quite a ride.
The show is a part of the Flea Theater’s Cutthroat series.
PLAYING DECEMBER 9-22.

“Mr. Epstein shines as the manager.” -Suzanna Bowling, Times Square Chronicles
