All For One Theater, the company that last produced My Name is Gideon, continues its legacy of producing acclaimed solo works with its upcoming slate of two productions, SQUEAMISH starring two-time Tony nominee Alison Fraser (The Secret Garden, First Daughter Suite) and THE BROBOT JOHNSON EXPERIENCE, written by and starring All For One Artist in Residence Darian Dauchan. SQUEAMISH begins performances at The Beckett Theatre at Theatre Row (410 W. 42nd St.) October 6th through November 11th, with opening night set for October 16th, 2017.

Tickets are available by visiting www.telecharge.com or by calling (212) 239-6200. THE BROBOT JOHNSON EXPERIENCE, a co-production with The Bushwick Starr (207 Starr Street) will play February 14th, 2018 through March 17th, 2018, with opening night on February 24th, 2018. Tickets may be purchased at www.thebushwickstarr.org.

In SQUEAMISH a recovering alcoholic and heavily medicated psychoanalyst (Alison Fraser) finds herself consumed by her quest for personal balance. This is the third psychological horror play from Aaron Mark following his acclaimed Empanada Loca with Daphne Rubin-Vega and Another Medea with Tom Hewitt. Mr. Mark is also the director. Lighting and scenic design are by Sarah Johnston.

A co-production with The Bushwick Starr, THE BROBOT JOHNSON EXPERIENCE is the culmination of The Brobot Johnson Project, bringing together writer and performer Darian Dauchan's hip hop album and sci-fi web series into a solo theater piece through multimedia and performance.Using live looped vocals, rhymes, and beatboxing, THE BROBOT JOHNSON EXPERIENCE is a sci-fi hip hop origin story that defies both space and time. One hundred years from now, a race of hip hop androids known as Brobots will form a unit, The Tribe Called Space Quest, to spread their message of peace, love, and dopeness all over the universe.

THE BROBOT JOHNSON EXPERIENCE is directed by Andrew Scoville. Scenic design is by Raul Abrego, with lighting design by Sarah Johnston. Sound design is by Matt Stine and projection design is by Kate Freer.

Now in its sixth year, All For One Theater (AFO) remains dedicated to developing and producing extraordinary solo theater and creating sustaining careers for solo artists. AFO is rooted in the belief that solo theater is unique in its ability to deliver life-changing stories. It speaks with a passion that compels us to lean in, relate, and revel, while offering a range of experiences as diverse as humankind itself. AFO productions have played Off-Broadway at numerous theatres, including 59E59, Theatre Row, Cherry Lane Theatre, Wild Project, and internationally at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. In 2016, AFO launched its touring initiative to bring solo shows to stages across America and around the world. It also created the AFO Solo Collective (AFO|SoCo) to nurture and develop some of the brightest writing, performing, and directing talent in the solo world, providing opportunities to workshop projects in all stages of development. Their two-year Artist in Residence (AIR) program supports a single artist with one big idea. The AIR and their collaborators have access to the full range of AFO's support, developing their work with invited audiences and culminating in the staging of a new full-length play.

The Bushwick Starr is an Obie Award-winning not-for-profit theater that presents an annual season of new performance works. An organization defined by both their artists and the community, they have grown into a thriving theatrical venue, a vital neighborhood arts center, and a destination for exciting and engaging performances since 2007. Through serving both emerging and established artists, the Starr has become a pillar of The New York City cultural map and a trusted theater where people can experience new, high quality work in a warm, intimate environment. The Bushwick Starr develops new work by a highly curated group of performing artists that challenged traditional perceptions of theater and performance.
