Brazen Theater Presents UNCLE WALT Tonight

By:
Brazen Theater presents the professional world premier of Uncle Walt, a new dark comedy by Andrew Rosdail directed by Mark Hooker beginning tonight, December 4th at the People's Center Theatre, 425 20th Avenue South, 3rd Floor, Minneapolis, MN 55454.

Able and Cain had nothing on Clint and Ron in this modern day allegory on two brothers at war. When Clint is fired from his job as a Disney animator, he kidnaps Walt's frozen head in order to hold it for ransom. He takes the head home in a styrofoam cooler to the shabby townhouse where he lives with his slacker younger brother. However, Clint does not count on Walt's head coming to life with an agenda of his own: obtaining a new body. Walt's plan? Talk one of the brothers in to killing the other.

Nick James Parker is originally from Louisville KY. Nick graduated from the University of Minnesota (Morris) in 2008 where he studied acting and improv. He has been doing theatre in the Twin Cities since. Favorite roles include Hamlet in Hamlet and Vladimir in Waiting for Godot. Nick can be found monthly hosting burlesque shows as Louisiana Slim, one half of the musical sexperience, The Love Enormous.

The Uncle Walt cast includes Nicholas Pierro, Nick James, Coletrane T. Johnson, and Matt Wall.

Uncle Walt begins its run at the People's Center on December 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13 at 7:30 p.m. and December 7, 14 at 3:00 p.m. Tickets are $20. For more information and ticket sales link, visit http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/938392.
