BREAKDOWN

American Soup: A play with music in which Joe, an enigmatic stranger, calls on Andy Warhol at his purgatorial studio, seeking to have his portrait painted. It soon becomes apparent that Joe knows a great deal about his artist and comes bearing a gift that Andy is not readily willing to accept. Andy struggles to paint a portrait of his own life. In the process, he provides a context and commentary on the life and times of the Marcello family in Queens, NY. The family embodies the deep but anonymous quality of life in a working class neighborhood in contrast to Mr. Warhol’s quest for fame.

A live, onstage, and often interactive band performs celebrated songs reflecting the tenor of the country from the 60s to the new Millennium. We watch as the family lives through the highs and lows of the American experience. The Marcello’s and Andy’s stories are woven together to present the impact of popular culture and the landmarks of history on the evolution of the American spirit.

Seeking:

Joe
(40s-50s) Any ethnicity. Takes his work seriously and expects others to do the same, but not without compassion. Highly evolved and seeks the best possible outcome in all scenarios.

Tony
(Ages 30s to 70s) Second generation Italian and first generation restaurant owner in Queens, NY. Proud of his achievements and his family. A man who lives and loves generously. Believes in keeping an open mind, but not so open that your brain falls out.
