Doors 7pm | Music @ 7:30 | Play @ 8:15

Please Don’t Slow Me Down — a world premiere play by Melina Cohen-Bramwell, directed by Lana Richards.

Local bands will open for the play in a DIY house-show-meets-blackbox-theatre experience. Synopsis: Benji Tullman, a bipolar, Bay-Area-born millennial–and the physical embodiment of his cyclical moods–are having one last, manic hurrah. Over the course of one wild night, they wind up at a rave on the site of his former elementary school, Chaverim Jewish Day School, and at a crossroads that will determine the course of Benji’s future. (It’s a comedy!)

with Musical Performances by Jas Stade, Tristan Marcelle, The Secretary, Fatale, Carlie Mari, Mabuhay Gardens, and more.

Please Don’t Slow Me Down will run Oct 30-Nov 8 at Little Boxes Theater in SF and November 14-15 at Space 1308 in Oakland.
