PARRALLEL LIVES: A BYOB, Sketch Comedy Fundraiser for H.O.P.E. Players

On Friday, November 1st & Saturday, November 2nd at 8pm, H.O.P.E. Players is proud to present "PARALLEL LIVES" by Kathy Najimy & Mo Gaffney, a BYOB*, sketch-comedy** fundraiser featuring four of our infamous and incomparable b!+c#e$ with special guest, comedian & women-lover, Matt Nino (tickets are $18 online @ hopeplayers.com and $20 at the door)!

PARALLEL LIVES, starring Cindy Berg, Alicia Brisbois, Jenn Hallman & Mandy Jacobus, is a wickedly funny and realistic look at men, women, sex, religion, family, therapy, and growing up in modern America.  Originally written and performed by Kathy Najimy & Mo Gaffney, the H.O.P.E. production features four actresses to play the plethora of well-developed and easy to love characters.

You DO NOT want to miss these hilarious women playing characters ranging from a couple of supreme beings, to street-walking "ladies of the night," to hormonal teenagers from the Bronx, to the mothers of our ol' buddy Walt's famous princesses! Nor do you want to miss the stand up comedy of Matt Nino! He has performed in venues across the country and right here in Philadelphia, and he is writing NEW MATERIAL just for us!

*BYOB means Bring Your Own Beverages, not Bring Your Own Cooler. Please remember that while this is an event that allows you to BYOB, we are primarily presenting a show. We here at H.O.P.E. love to have a good time, but if a guest is becoming a distraction (loud, heckling, spilling, texting, etc) to fellow patrons or to the performers, he/she will be escorted out of the venue by security. Please drink respectfully and responsibly for the enjoyment of all ticket holders and the H.O.P.E cast, crew, staff & volunteers!
