one person show world premiere

When love arrives, what if it’s not what you expected? Let’s see if Joe’s ego can handle change.

 

Sacred Fools Theatre Company is thrilled to announce the world-premiere of The One. In his latest solo production, alone and facing 50, Joe meets a woman who he deeply loves and is ready to commit to fully. But, plot twist: She’s into polyamory.


“The One” is written & performed by Joe Hernandez-Kolski and directed & developed by Benjamin Byron Davis. “The One" marks their fourth solo show collaboration. Joe and Ben met while performing in a Sacred Fools holiday show in 1999. Since then, they have collaborated on numerous projects including a digital theater piece for Center Theatre Group (“How I Spent My Summer Vacation”) about an artist in isolation during the pandemic.

 

*PLEASE NOTE APRIL 28 HAS BOTH LIVE AND VIRTUAL TICKETING OPTIONS!


Joe Hernandez-Kolski is an Emmy award-winner and two-time HBO Def Poet. Joe has performed his unique blend of comedy and poetry at over one hundred high schools, colleges and universities. His first solo show, “You Wanna Piece of Me?” is published by the University of Michigan press as part of an anthology, “Say Word: Voices in Hip-Hop Theater.” Theater credits include: “Waiting for Waiting for Godot” (Sacred Fools), “Mr. Burns a post-electric play” (Sacred Fools), “The Bomb-itty of Errors” (New Ambassadors, London).
