David Crabb brings us a comedy that touches on depression, family politics and Aunt Patty.
Press Release Follows
Storyteller, Moth host and creator of the New York Times Critics’ Pick solo show & memoir “Bad Kid,” David Crabb invites you into his home for this intimate 12-person audience presentation of “US & Them & Me & You.” He’s excited for you to meet his Aunt Patty, who’s visiting from down south with cookies in tow. Her mission: to understand all the left-coast crystal healing, vegan ice cream and tarot wisdom she can before returning to the conservative stronghold of her home in Minerva, Texas. Her other mission: to understand the mysterious depression that seems to be consuming her nephew; a depression that she can feel invading her own life as well. Maybe it’s in the blood? Or maybe it’s just being alive, depressed and hopeful in America in 2019?
Let’s go on a tour through the north & the south, the city & the country, the left & the right. Don’t be scared. We’re pretty much all in the same boat.
Laughter is coming. Angst is coming. Family is coming.
