This Saturday, March 7th, The Company has its World Premiere.
And that’s thanks to Co-Creator, Director, and unbelievably sweet friend David Cyr Kerns. David and I met doing improv together in college, and it was love at first “scene where he pretends to be the Pope ordering too much meat at Subway.”
David and I made a blood pact in those days — whoever makes it in Hollywood first, we’re dragging the other one up by their hair. I have way less hair than I did back then, but David dragged me up anyway. He called me up and said, okay, let’s make a movie. And so we wrote one and we made it. Now, we get to share it. The blood pact has been fulfilled.
Thank you, David. Welcome to Subway. We’re out of meat. And you’re the Pope.
Our 20-minute comedy short, “The Company,” is premiering at the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival — and we won Best Comedy Short! @hriff_hollywood_film_festival
“On the eve of opening night, a high-strung director leads a ragtag company of semi-pro theatre artists through a hectic final rehearsal full of fragile egos, toilet emergencies, and a Cockney clowning interlude.”
Screening in Los Angeles on Saturday, March 7th, at L.A. Live!
