EMIL AMOK—LOST NPR HOST FOUND UNDER ST. MARKS, AND OTHER STORIES Play 2023 FRIGID Fringe Festival

Journalist, podcaster, and former NPR host Emil Guillermo-winner of an American Book Award-takes his truth to the stage in a comic one-man show about race, the media, Asian American Filipino history, Harvard/affirmative action, and PETA.

FRIGID Fringe Festival is an open and unjuried theatre festival that gives artists an opportunity to let their ingenuity thrive in a venue that values freedom of expression and artistic determination. In true support of the Indie Theater Community, 100% of box office proceeds go directly to the artists whose work is being presented. FRIGID is here to chill out the New York independent theatre scene's ideas of what a fringe festival can be! www.frigid.nyc
