The Convicts Return

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.
