The Bullpen is an 18-character play written and performed by Joe Assadourian 

A man is arrested, arraigned and put on trial for a crime he claims he did not commit. Consequently he is judged by two systems of jurisprudence – one a jury of his peers in an actual courtroom and the other the fascinating and hilarious denizens of the bullpen in which he is being held. Mr. Assadourian mercurially transforms from character to character and court to court as the play steamrolls toward both verdicts that literally range from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Directed by Richard Hoehler

Reviews

  • Switching characters at ballistic rapid-fire inertia, the courtroom black comedy finds its cement center with the rollicking Assadourian, who plays the entire ensemble of high-spirited denizens like a speed-balling rollercoaster ride; his energy alone brings to mind a blue collar Jefferson Mays.

  • Strap yourself in for one wild ride when you take your seat at Joe Assadourian's insanely entertaining and thought-provoking one-man show The Bullpen, now running at the Playroom Theater. In a near breathless 70 minutes, he delivers a performance so strong that missing it ought to be a crime.
