EAST 14TH: TRUE TALES OF A RELUCTANT PLAYER by Don Reed

The Marsh Berkeley
Berkeley, CA


Back in 1970s Oakland, his stepfather forced him to be a straight A, God-fearing church boy--but he wanted to be just like his dear old Dad. Too bad he didn't know dear old Dad was a pimp.

Don Reed has performed and written for film, television, and theater. His work on an HBO special of up-and-coming comedians years ago caught the attention of Bill Cosby and led to the creation of a guest-starring role for him on "The Cosby Show." Don went on to play the recurring role of Chip in "The Cosby Show," spin-off "A Different World," and was recently in "Bee Movie Shorts" starring Jerry Seinfeld.

Don has performed all over the country and opened for Tony Award winner Tommy Tune. You may have heard his voice on "Spiderman," "The Flintstones," "Johnny Quest," "ER," "Frasier," "Friends," "Scrubs," "Will & Grace," "Law & Order," "SNL," and The Golden Globes. He has written/developed screenplays with Spike Lee's 40 Acres and Mule Filmworks and Maverick Films.

Don Reed's one-man performance is truly outstanding.  Even after seeing "True Tales..." six times, it still makes me laugh.  I also got a kick out of watching patrons double over in laughter during this performance.  I cannot wait to see the debut of Don's newest performance in October 2011.

The show was great.  I enjoyed it the second time as much as when I first saw at the Marsh in San Francisco two years ago.
