📍 Theatre: The Lyric Hyperion
2106 Hyperion Avenue
Los Angeles, CA 90027
Based on playwright and lead actor Tom Alper’s real life experiences, this is a boiler room tale of telemarketing and desperation. For something that is fiercely realistic and edgy, with a New York fighter’s indie heart, The Pitch is also hilarious, life-affirming, and an insanely good time. It’s a sold-out smash hit at the Odyssey Theatre.
Alper's new work, the world premiere of The Pitch, is playing now through the 29th at The Lyric Hyperion.
A deeply personal work, it took his youngest daughter going to college, a divorce, inspiration from his new girlfriend and open reflection on the bizarre experiences of working in a 'boiler room' for him to complete it...and provide the catharsis he desperately needed.
Tom Alper carried three scenes of a play around in his briefcase for almost a decade, telling everyone he was writing a new play. A deeply personal work, it took his youngest daughter going to college, a divorce, inspiration from his new girlfriend and open reflection on the bizarre experiences of working in a “boiler room” for him to complete it…and provide the catharsis he desperately needed.
