Til Death Do Us Part...You First

Directed by Academy Award-nominee Chazz Palminteri (Bullets Over Broadway, A Bronx Tale), and starring Peter Fogel (My Mother’s Italian, My Father’s Jewish & I’m In Therapy!) Til Death Do Us Part…You First! is a tour-de-force performance that reminds audiences of the ups and downs of love and marriage. Combining fast-paced comedy with a grounded sense of pathos, the 90-minute monologue written and performed by Peter Fogel chronicles the comedian’s personal journey to find acceptance.

This hilarious multi-media solo show is about a comedian and eternal bachelor who is dumped by his girlfriend on Valentine’s Day. Sensing his own mortality, he is visited by his Conscience (Chazz Palminteri in a voice-over). Throughout the story, Palminteri mentors Fogel on how he can end all his romantic disasters and reconnect with the one woman who can change his life! During the fast-paced performance, Fogel employs his signature wit and vocal gifts to bring to life such relatable characters as Russian ex-girlfriend Irina, magician, and ex-fiancé Jamie, high maintenance Tanya, his college roommate, Uncle Harold, plus his demented Father and evil stepmom Eva. But, of course, they all have one goal — to continue to stress him out about his unfilled love life! Fogel has the audience roaring with laughter as he relates one bold and wacky anecdote after another!. The perfect evening of laughs, for single, divorced, and couples!
