théâtre du jour coming to NOLA Fringe Festival

Performed earlier this year in Paris and Washington, DC, théâtre du jour comprises two comic shorts written and directed by Michael Merino.

The first work, Seat Yourself, explores the frustrations of fine dining and "the euphemism."

The second work, Pompa y Circunstancia, concerns a bizarre commencement ceremony, where two brothers mis-communicate about what to wear, life, and lunch.

The cast includes Perry Leopard, Randy Maggiore, and Claudia Baumgarten. The shows will be performed at The Skull Club located at 1005 N. Spain Street, New Orleans, LA 70117.

Dates and times are:

- Thursday, November 13 at 8:30 pm
- Saturday, November 15 at 7:00 pm
- Sunday, November 16 at 5:30 pm

Tickets are $7 and can be purchased at the door or in advance through TicketWeb.com. For more information about the festival, click the following link: http://www.nofringe.org/index.html.
