Sideway Theater Company and TACO Dog Productions

This summer, TACO Dog Productions and Sideway Theater Company are joining forces to present feeling sorry for roman POLANSKI at Theatre Asylum, part of the inaugural Hollywood Fringe 2010.

Singing telegram delivery man Bink Waverly and his wife Myrna are two people trapped on a treadmill of lower middle class existence when the question of forgiveness knocks them off.
