  • To My Great Chagrin: The Unbelievable Story of Brother Theodore

His one-man off-Broadway show influenced artists such as Woody Allen and Eric Bogosian. 70 min. World premiere. Discussion with Sumerel, Dick Cavett, Tom Schiller, Eric Bogosian, Lorca Morello, and other Brother Theodore devotees.
