Fabuloso
A Play by John Kolvenbach
1/7/2010 - 1/31/2010
Do you have a friend who is the life of the party? But what if that friend never left and the party never stopped? Teddy and Kate are living a quiet existence in their one-bedroom apartment, until Teddy’s long lost friend, Arthur, appears out of the blue, with his fiancée in tow. A screwball comedy of living life to the fullest. (Contains Adult Situations and Adult Language, Estimated Run Time: 1 hour, 45 minutes including one 15-minute intermission)
