Los Angeles, CA April 28, 2017 – Solo performance artist Alan Mintz has created a blistering satire of sales training seminars with his new show Dominate The Competition, playing at the Hudson Guild Theater for the Hollywood Fringe Festival June 2017.
Mr. Mintz plays Lance Rod, a hard edged, super competitive and somewhat deranged sales manager leading a class of newly hired sales representatives. The audience is guided through the ridiculously manipulative methods used to coerce people out of their money.
Mr. Mintz farcically rips at the fake mask of sincerity used by desperate sales reps and he also exposes our exploitative consumerist culture. Underlying this outrageous comedy is the sad delusion of a futile search for a mythical American Dream. As P. T. Barnum said, “There’s a sucker born every minute.”
