Willie and Me is a new play, for a new generation, and those who remember... the circus, Emmett Kelly Sr., & those who want to be a kid again!From humble farm boy beginnings to international fame, his genius and ingenuity came in the simplicity of his comedy. The honest, heartfelt sentiments he conveyed in the character he created, known as Weary Willie, were expressed without ever uttering a single word. It was the character’s silence that spoke to a generation of Americans and the story of “Willie and Me, In The Spotlight Again” gives new voice to a humble and common man, a father, husband, and the most famous circus artist ever to grace an arena. He changed people’s lives through the honesty of his character and the affirmation of the human spirit and his name was Emmett Kelly, Sr. “Willie and Me, In The Spotlight Again” is the loving portrait of the man behind the makeup and how his life experiences were the genesis of his character, Weary Willie, told in this 90-minute bio-drama.

PIE LESSONS is a private view into how powerful a grip an immigrant's background has on a man, and how it shapes his behavior, perhaps even years after he crossed the ocean. It is served with traditional klezmer music, fresh pie at every performance, and a generous dollop of unabashed patriotism that perhaps only a foreigner could muster.
