CONFESS YOUR BUBBLE Sells Out for 6/21

The Theater Accident announces that CONFESS YOUR BUBBLE, starring Steve Burns ("Steve" from Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues), has sold out its June 21st opening night performance.  Limited tickets are still available for Friday June 22nd at 7pm, Saturday June 23rd at 5pm, Sunday June 24th at 8pm, Tuesday June 26th at 8pm, & Saturday June 30th at 8pm. Tickets ($15) via online purchase at www.bricktheater.com or by calling 1-866-811-4111.  CONFESS YOUR BUBBLE will play as part of THE DEMOCRACY FESTIVAL, June 21-30th at The Brick (575 Metropolitan Avenue between Union and Lorimer). 

Playwright Matthew Freeman and director Kyle Ancowitz (The Theater Accident) return to The Brick with CONFESS YOUR BUBBLE. Their previous appearances include the much-ballyhooed productions of GLEE CLUB, AN INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHOR and THAT OLD SOFT SHOE. In CONFESS YOUR BUBBLE, Senator Carl Corpuscle (Burns), a Democratic Senator from the Great State of Washington (not D.C.) presents a court-mandated address about his life in government to local high school students, in order to satisfy the terms of a plea bargain. Attendance is not mandatory, and only students over 17 may attend. Senator Corpuscle discusses his role in the Democratic Administration, delivers a civics lesson, and offers dire warnings—with slides to illustrate his points.
