FRIDAY, JANUARY 22
Brad Zimmerman
My Rise to the Middle, written and performed by Brad Zimmerman explores a man’s lifetime struggle to make it as an actor in New York City. In the tradition of his off-Broadway sensation My Son the Waiter, a Jewish Tragedy, Brad’s comedic stories of his childhood, education, long tenure as a waiter, and of course his loving somewhat overbearing mother and his misbegotten love life all she’d light on how a career breakthrough in his mid 50’s made him one of the go to opening acts for comedy legends Joan Rivers and George Carlin. A very funny, very poignant and very easily identifiable story that will inspires as much as it entertains.
