David Dean Bottrell's TEENAGE WASTELAND is Coming To The HOT! Festival At Dixon Place
The performance will take place on July 16th.
Actor, writer, and storyteller David Dean Bottrell ("Modern Family," "Frasier" 2024) will bring his critically celebrated solo show, TEENAGE WASTELAND: Thirteen Fourteen Fifteen, to The HOT! Festival at Dixon Place for one night only on Tuesday, July 16 at 7:30 PM. Since premiering in a May, 2025 workshop at Pangea NYC, the show has taken off like a rocket and has already played hugely successful engagements in Los Angeles, Palm Springs, San Francisco, Cotuit (Cape Cod) and Nantucket (with more dates to be announced soon).
From junior high angst to the hormonal havoc of high school, Bottrell delivers a raw, riotous and deeply human look at coming-of-age with all the missteps, meltdowns, and hard-won moments of clarity that come with it. The result? A rollercoaster ride of laugh-out-loud storytelling that's as relatable as it is unforgettable. "Three years. One teenager. Too many bad decisions."
