Fridays & Saturdays (Alternating) A New Comedy by Stuart Bousel Exit Theatre 156 Eddy Street San Francisco All Shows 8pm World Premiere! Directed by Rik Lopes Starring: Mikka Bonel, Kat Bushnell, Wesley Cayabyab, Tony Cirimele, Sylvia Hathaway, Dan Kurtz, Sam Tillis & Nick Trengove A fast-paced comedy about a man, his boyfriend, and his boyfriend's girlfriend, Everybody Here Says Hello! is a bittersweet exploration of the ups and downs inherent to modern relationships and sexuality, the absurd distortion of our lives when seen through the eyes of our friends, and all the things we want to say to one another but never do. Critics & Audiences"In a story that at first seems to have a gay relationship at its core before sending out tendrils into complex webs of sexual permutations. Happy and sad are always in close proximity, but Bousel finds ways to evoke laughs that always seem appropriate for the situations. Even the most quippish wisecracks ring true for the characters, who feel like fresh creations but are somehow still familiar."
--Richard Dodds Bay Area Reporter "Delightful. The cast is uniformly excellent...the direction is sharp and smooth, and the script is hilarious (and incisive). A comedy with a great deal of heart, this one is for anyone who has ever dated. I'm not kidding. The questions we all have while in the dating pool are deliciously exposed and up-ended in this tale of a love triangle that becomes a rectangle and then a hexagon... I'm going to go back and see it again." --Goldstar Review |
