WHAT IS EXPRESSO?
May 2nd-4th 2014, FYT is putting on Expresso, an
original two-act comedy by Leo and Pavel Lion. This is FYT's second
production, following in the footsteps of "Down the Chocolate River and
Beyond" (based on the work of Roald Dahl) performed in an off-Broadway
theater in the Spring of 2013. The show filled the house for five nights in a row, and was adored by audiences of all ages.
Expresso tells the story of a business threatened by the looming monopolistic powers and the state of the economy. Through unforgettable characters and hilarious writing, Lion and Lion have crafted a world that is still holding onto hope. The piece takes place in a local independent coffee-shop trying desperately to stay in business after a "Sckubrats" opens up across the street. Hilarity ensues as the employees of Brown Coffee House, often eccentric and misguided, all scramble to get business booming again and rid their area of the corporate plague.
