"Stein’s got…lively rhythms…self-lacerating humor and intelligence."
                   -SD UT

Multiple identities...time travel...pimps...grandmothers...Jews celebrating
Christmas... Enter a world of autobiography gone awry...of a narrator's
storytelling fractured into five individuals all claiming to be Scott
Stein, all telling different stories...all lies.
"A clever, provocative comedy"
                   -SD UT


"Director Katie Rodda...stages scenes with surprising poignancy."
