Chicago actor and playwright Tim Campos performs his current one-person show Screw It: Doin' Time on the Line at Theatre Row, 410 West 42nd Street, New York City, Friday October 20, 2017 as part of the United Solo Festival. Tickets are on sale now at www.telecharge.com/Off-Broadway/United-Solo-Festival-2017.

Directed by Antoine McKay, the show chronicles Campos' near decade of personal experiences working the assembly line for Ford Motor Company in both Michigan and Chicago, Illinois. Campos performs over forty-five unique characters in this hilarious and poignant fast-paced show. Screw It: Doin' Time on the Line is a daring solo performance that gives a glimpse into the factory of one of America's largest companies. Campos takes the audience on a no holds barred adventure as he shares his intimate portrait of factory life.

After he takes a job with Ford Motor Company to recoup his finances and to move out of his sister's house, Campos's "one year and done" promise to himself turns into nearly a decade when he reaps the benefits of a steady paycheck and a job where he can manipulate the system. All the while, he tries to find the perfect escape from factory life. The show contains explicit language throughout.

Screw It: Doin' Time on the Line features Original Music by Ryan Bentley (Schererville, IN), Ray Smetana (former Ford Saline Parts Plant worker now working at Dearborn Truck) and Quasar Wut-Wut (Chicago based band).

Sound design is by Ken Faulk.

Performance time for Screw It: Doin' Time on the Line, is Friday, October 20, 2017 at Theater Row at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $35.00.
