The Orchard's DONALD CRIED to Open in Houston 3/24
Director, writer, and star Kris Avedisian expertly deconstructs the contemporary obsession with the "man-child" in DONALD CRIED, a darkly funny story about former childhood best friends who reconnect decades later in their working-class Rhode Island neighborhood. Presented by The Orchard, DONALD CRIED is set to open on March 24 at the Houston 8 .
Peter Latang (Jesse Wakeman) left his childhood home to reinvent himself as a slick, Wall Street mover and shaker. When he's forced to return home to bury his grandmother, he loses his wallet on the trip. Stranded and broke, Peter looks to the only person he can think of to help him out - his next-door neighbor and former childhood friend Donald (played by Avedisian). The ever-eccentric Donald hasn't changed a bit. And what starts as a simple favor turns into a long and unhinged van ride into their past. Avedisian's pitch-perfect first feature is a brilliant twist on the family-reunion melodrama and the classic buddy comedy. See stills from the movie below!
