They Call Me Mister Fry (fanaticSalon)

This off- Broadway bound one-man show is a funny, poignant yet true story of a first-year teacher teaching 5th grade in South Los Angeles.

What happens when a white boy from Indiana ends up teaching fifth graders in South Central Los Angeles? The critics say, "Jack Fry is the Patch Adams of Education", "Highest quality of Off-Broadway theatre", "Gritty but hopeful"," "Heartwarming." It's "A talented blend of comedy and emotion."

Recently selected "Best of the Fest" and "Best Monologue" at the 2009 Washington Capital Fringe Festival, They Call Me Mister Fry has been playing in Los Angeles before sold out crowds and standing ovations for two years. It will be performed this fall in DC at the Department of Education, and it will have an 8-week off-Broadway run at the Comic Strip Live Theater this November and December

This is indeed a MUST SEE one-man show written by and starring Jack Fry (Freiberger) which has been getting standing ovations before packed houses in New York and Los Angeles.

This funny yet poignant TRUE STORY will have you laughing and crying for a teacher having to deal with students, the system, an alter ego King Arthur and finally with his own fragile existence.

Join FanaticSalon Theater as they bring you this remarkable show that will renew your commitment to teachers, teaching and the future of our youth.
