ADVICE
July 31 - August 15
A LIVELY & IRREVERENT NEW COMEDY OF BAD MANNERS

By Brent Askari
Directed by Adrienne Campbell- Holt

Starring film, television, and stage stars, Katie Lowes (ABC’s Scandal) and Adam Shapiro (The Bear)

What happens when a wildly unqualified man writes a self-help book… and then shows up to test it on his friends?

Ron and Joy’s anniversary dinner goes spectacularly off the rails when Gary — recently divorced, chronically chaotic, and newly self-declared life coach — shows up with a surprise: a self-help book he’s written called How To Maximize The Most Successful You. The problem? His life is a mess.

As Ron and Joy attempt a well-meaning intervention to stop Gary from quitting his day job, the wine starts flowing, the “team-building” exercises begin, and the questions get a little too real. What starts as friendly concern spirals into confessions, accusations, and revelations no one planned to serve with dinner.

Fast, sharp, and wickedly funny, ADVICE skewers friendship, marriage, and the danger of asking the wrong question at exactly the right time. Brent Askari’s witty new comedy is an uncomfortably relatable look at ambition, insecurity, and the chaos of trying to fix someone else’s life — and will have you howling with laughter.

“A lively and irreverent look at friendship, ambition and the messy fallout of giving (and getting) well-intentioned but ill-fated life-advice.”
— BroadwayWorld
“‘Advice’ is a powerful work of art that will linger in your thoughts for days after the curtain falls.”
— The Bradenton Times
