The Banana Monologues is a sexy comedy inspired by a true love story about a man, a woman, and his 'banana,' Sergeant Johnson. When the layers of the relationship are peeled back, Gus Weiderman tries to split from his girlfriend Alexis (a way out-of-his league woman), but the sergeant stands firm. How does a man deal with the universal issue of the way guys think?

The Banana Monologues began at the Spoleto Festival in Charleston, SC. For the next following years it did very well in festivals throughout the US and Canada, and has been nominated for 'Best Show' and 'Best Actor', and won for 'Best Sound Design'.
