This one- man show, written and performed
by Geoff Hoyle, has been described by the San Francisco Examiner
as "a journey into genius." With his "dexterous voice, Silly Putty
body, chainsaw wit and cheeky attitude," Hoyle brings an irreverent
host of characters to life in this mostly-true story of his attempt
to make it big in New York City. The playwright/performer came to
the U.S. from England in 1973, and shortly afterward joined the
Pickle Family Circus, which may have been a perfectly appropriate
introduction to American culture judging from the turmoil and trauma
of the Big Apple personified in Convict's array of pushy agents,
slimy TV producers and bizarre stage crews.
