By: A.A. Cristi
Following an extended run in Los Angeles at the Upright Citizens Brigade and the Lyric Hyperion, "Working Class Heroes" is traveling to New York City for one night only at Caveat NYC.
Carl Foreman, Jr. weaves theatrically comedic characters with storytelling and standup in this hilarious ode to the working class heroes who shape our lives in ways both big and small.
