About the Project
A LATE-BLOOMER New York City actor chooses to commit a singular act of charity: serving free coffee to a small segment of the city’s 150,000+ homeless population living on its affluent Union Square. In the process, he discovers a familial connection with this colorful but broken cadre of characters. As COVID overtakes Manhattan, his experiences among the poor lead him into a dark night of the soul, from which he ultimately emerges, finding reconciliation with God and true affirmation of the Franciscan belief that it is in giving that we receive. Actor and award-winning writer MARK LANHAM and award-winning director and actor CHRIS CLAVELLI come together to tell a tale that is both timely and timeless—an ode to the modern urban age that cheerfully refutes the old adage that no good deed goes unpunished. AUDIENCE NOTE: This show contains frank depictions of people experiencing addiction and mental illness and brief partial nudity.
