Description

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. 

With live music opening acts each night for a DIY house-show-meets-blackbox-theatre experience. 

Featuring an all-local team of actors, designers, and production staff. 

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!)
