A professional football team is torn between two potential top draft picks: charismatic multiethnic finesse machine Lave Dash and salt-of-the-earth muscle monster Mervin Gufflinson the First. Making the crazy decision to draft them both causes a media meltdown that changes the game. And all sports. And the whole world. And the entire space-time continuum. Featuring an all-female cast and an all-star collection of fake moustaches and wigs, this world premiere is an uproarious comedy about America’s obsession with football, the joys of masculinity, and the consequences of having our idols do exactly what we want them to do.
WHY SEE THIS SHOW: Tony Nominee (for HELL’S KITCHEN, the Alicia Keys musical), Pulitzer Prize Finalist, and writer of SHOOTS starring Jason D. Johnson for our Long Story Short program during COVID, Kristoffer Diaz turns his focus on a unique ability of his: getting to the heart of why people love a certain sport and the absurdity of spectacle. It’s a celebration of football and of the theater of football (a very theatrical sport). It’s a play in which people play dozens of characters all with incredibly dumb names. It satirizes the media’s insatiable desire to make every story the biggest, most incredible, world-changing story by giving it world-changing possibilities.
Kris Diaz is VERY funny with character-based dialogue and even funnier with the bigger picture: an ability to pierce through the hyper masculine sports entertainment world with alarmingly sharp wit. Do you love football? This is for you to laugh with. Do you hate football? This is for you to laugh at. It’s big, it’s silly, it will be like watching a marathon with six performers playing dozens of characters in increasingly absurd situations wearing increasingly absurd mustaches or hats or costumes or all three.
Make Greenville Center for Creative Arts (GCCA) your first stop on First Friday! Located in the historic Brandon Mill complex in the creative arts district of West Greenville, GCCA is a perfect place to begin the Metropolitan Arts Council’s monthly art walk.
The Art Center is open for extended hours, 6pm to 9pm, on the first Friday of every month for First Friday activities. In addition to viewing multiple exhibitions from both locally and nationally-recognized artists, at GCCA you’ll have the opportunity to meet the resident working artists, see their studio spaces and works in progress, and learn more about their personal style and artistic process.
The mission of GCCA is to enrich the cultural fabric of the community through visual arts promotion, education, and inspiration. Founded by a dedicated group of artists, teachers, and community leaders, the Art Center offers programs for people of all ages, backgrounds, and economic circumstances.
Greenville’s Downtown Trolley (Route 903) provides visitors to the downtown area easy and free transport to the West Greenville area from July through September, every Thursday and Friday, 6pm to 11pm, and Saturdays, 5:30pm to 11pm.
