Help! Help! I Know This Title is Long, But Somebody's Trying to Kill Me!

Drew the Dramatic Fool
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The show must go on - even when a suspicious character has eliminated the entire cast! When every entertainer in a vaudeville variety show is mysteriously dispatched, Drew the Dramatic Fool must take over every role in the production, from a 36-ball juggling act to the old saw-the-assistant-in-half trick. If he fails? Let's just say that bad reviews can be murder. “Help! Help!...” is a wonderfully comic examination of our anxieties, from the fear of failure to the fear of death. Created and Performed by Drew Richardson (Drew the Dramatic Fool) and directed by Avner Eisenberg (Avner the Eccentric).

Drew the Dramatic Fool (Drew Richardson) is best known as the first person in the 21st century to make new short silent movies for mainstream movie theaters. Besides being a silent film star in the wrong century, Drew has been creating solo stage shows for the past twenty years, which he has performed from Texas to Times Square to Austria. He first studied visual comedy with John Towsen at Ohio University, and with Jacques Lecoq in Paris. As a guest-teaching artist, Drew has taught for many universities and theatre companies including Point Park Conservatory for Performing Arts and 500 Clown. He now lives in Pittsburgh.
