‘Astutely funny’ Hoehler comes to Tusten stage

NARROWSBURG, NY—The Delaware Valley Arts Alliance will present “Richard Hoehler: For Real” at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 21 at the Tusten Theatre, 210 Bridge Street.

In this one-man show, actor Richard Hoehler takes the audience on an emotional roller coaster ride: qualifying at an AA meeting, auditioning for a Shakespeare play, spearheading a family crisis, welcoming an impending snowstorm and paying his respects to a secret crush. At turns uproariously funny and deeply moving, “this is deceptively simple theatre of the highest order,” says the Off Off Broadway Review.
