Hilarious play about two parents obsessed with getting their kid into the best pre-school and are willing to do ANYTHING to get him in!
Thanks for checking out our kickstarter page! We are raising money to fund our off-off Broadway production of "Bright Ideas" by Eric Coble.
This hilarious play is about two parents who are obsessed with getting their son into the best pre-school. They will do ANYTHING to get him in, and eventually they go too far....
We are all parents, and have been through the process of navigating our kids through the Manhattan school system. We want to bring this wacky play to our community so we can all laugh at ourselves!
Please support our show! Anything you can contribute is greatly appreciated. Be a part of "Bright Ideas"! Come see us in May and bring the most stressed out parents you know!!!
We will be performing the first three weeks in May at the Drilling Company on the Upper West Side in Manhattan. It's at 236 W. 78th St., Wednesday through Saturday at 8pm only. May 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th.
Everyone in the cast met in Ed Sherin's acting class, so we named our theatre company "Ed's Circle". This is our company's first show.

FAQ
-
Kickstarter is a way to help us to fund our show by asking for many people to give a small amount, while getting the word out to as many people as possible!
-
It's an all-or-nothing proposition. If we don't meet our goal, your card is not charged, and we don't get anything.
If we meet (or surpass) it, we get our show funded, you get something great in return, the sun shines brighter, flowers smell sweeter... you get the idea.
