Jukebox Stories
June 26, 2011 – 4:00pm
JUKEBOX STORIES is a critically acclaimed storytelling, song-singing, bingo-playing, comic duo that features Thai-American playwright/performer Prince Gomolvilas and singer/songwriter Brandon Patton and that has toured nationwide to theaters, bars, colleges, comedy clubs, coffeehouses, music venues, bowling alleys, and other weird performance spaces. Performing for the first time in three years, Prince and Brandon return with new tales and tunes, classic pieces from the past, and an expertly integrated bingo game that will have audience members vying for the Asian-est prizes this side of Little Tokyo! What will Prince have to say about UCLA student Alexandra Wallace, the proposed all-white Akira, and, of course, his beloved sister? How will Brandon look surrounded by a festival full of Asians? How could a show that’s constructed randomly by the audience be so much damn fun? www.jukeboxstories.com
“Jukebox Stories takes a classic idea and gives it a modern spin. Fun, fresh and decidedly untheatrical. Jukebox Stories is a sturdy piece of post-modern cabaret, and Gomolvilas and Patton nicely fill their roles as hip, urban troubadours!” — The Oakland Tribune
