LAST CALL
LAST CALL is NYC actress/stand-up and bartender, TERRI GIRVIN'S autobiographical new one person play.
LAST CALL takes place during one chaotic bar shift. Two worlds collide when our bartender's needy and quirky customers fight for her attention as she deals with a barrage of desperate phone calls from her self-medicating, about-to-be-homeless mother. A typical day in a bartender's life is full of snap judgments and snappy comebacks, but on this night Terri is forced to choose between coming to her mother’s rescue – or her own.
It’s about family... It's about boundaries... It's about how much to tip!
The setting for LAST CALL is the NYC bar where Terri works. Throughout the evening we'll watch her serving her many customers while a barrage of calls from her homeless mother prompt vivid flashbacks, both hysterical and touching, of the moments that have led up to this chaotic evening.
To accomplish all this in a one woman show, Terri has enlisted Tony nominated director, MICHAEL LEEDS and Grammy nominated sound designer PHIL PALAZZOLO to bring the evening to life.
Michael Leeds has brought together some of the best actors in South Florida to supply the voices of the dozens of quirky customers in Terri's bar as well as the members of her unconventional family. And while there are no bottles or glasses, Phil Pallazzolo's amazing sound effects combine with this extradorinary actress's ability to make us see every drink she pours, every bill she rings up - and every customer she throws out!
LAST CALL is tour de force theatre; a funny yet poignant evening you will long remember!
LAST CALL will run at Empire Stage in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, from April 13th - May 6th. Showtimes are 8pm Thurs./Fri./Sat., 7pm on Sunday.
