Tough Call - Encore

A special RETURN ENGAGEMENT of the original two-act play by Viewer Discretion Productions, back by popular demand!

1986 -- New Year's Eve.

Dean is working the graveyard shift at a local TV station, wasting time in the back office as the world outside cheers the coming of the new year. His solitary night of self-pity and Chinese food takeout is interrupted by a ringing telephone -- a wrong number. On a normal night, that would be the end of it. But amid the beginnings of an awkward, halting conversation, the young caller inadvertently lets slip a secret.

He's planning to commit suicide.

Tonight. At midnight.

The stumbling seesaw discussion that follows leads both young men -- one we see and one we only hear over the telephone line -- from Three's Company and Top Gun to nuclear war, from first kisses, loves lost, and bedroom politics, to the hidden wisdom of Ms. Pac-Man.

Contains mature themes and language that may not be suitable for children.

Tickets: $20
