STAGE TUBE: Sneak Peek at CRT's I'M CONNECTICUT

By:



Connecticut Repertory Theatre (CRT) will present the world premiere of Mike Reiss' comedy I'm Connecticut through December 10 in the Harriet S. Jorgensen Theatre, Storrs. For tickets and information, call 860-486-4226 or visit www.crt.uconn.edu. Get a first look at the production below!

If you're from Connecticut - the joke is on you! Mike Reiss is a Peabody Award-winner, and four-time Emmy award-winning writer for The Simpsons. He's also a Connecticut native and this time he's turned his sharp, satirical comic genius on his home state - and yours. I'm Connecticut is a love story about a young man who grew up in Simsbury now living in New York City and searching for love. Amid the anxieties of dating he begins to ask himself what a Nutmegger really is? If you've ever wondered about the identity of The Land of Steady Habits, be prepared for a hysterical surprise.

Mr. Reiss has spent two decades writing for The Simpsons. He ran the show in Season Four, which Entertainment Weekly called, "The greatest season of the greatest show in TV history." In 2006, Mike received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Animation Writers Caucus. He co-created the animated series The Critic, featuring actor John Lovitz, and created Showtime's hit cartoon Queer Duck (about a gay duck). His other TV credits include It's Garry Shandling's Show, ALF, and The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
