Centenary Stage Company's Fringe Festival Kicks Off With RENT CONTROL

Centenary Stage Company's Fringe Festival kicks off October 8 through October 11 with Rent Control in the Sitnik Theatre of the Lackland Performing Arts Center. Winner of the 2016 Fringe Award for Overall Excellence, this wild-but TRUE one-man-play written and performed by Evan Zes, recounts a period in his life as he struggled to survive, live and pursue his acting career in NYC. When Evan falls backwards into one of the few remaining rent-controlled apartments in NYC, he finds a way to make money and pursue his dream, turning the apartment into a lucrative Airbnb scheme - that is until his money-making scheme backfires. Zes portrays nearly 30 characters as they close in on him and threaten to ruin his life in this cautionary tale of greed and redemption. Rent Control features the use of some strong adult language and themes. Audience discretion is advised.
