Bathroom of a Bar on Bleecker:
Emil Ferzola stars in this new tragedy/dark comedy about the final episode of America's #1 comedy podcast. Written and directed by Mike Lemme.
​
-
Perfect if you like absurd independent theatre/satire, dark comedies, Christopher Nolan movies, love or hate podcasts, enjoy walking into something you think is one thing, and being happily surprised it’s completely different
-
I wrote the show with Denzel Washington in mind, but Emil Ferzola got the part instead 😉.
-
Relatable themes: conspiracy theories, false prophets, mental health, the dangers of podcasting and social media, the emotional and physical stress that comes from needing to find a toilet immediately

About Mike Lemme
Mike Lemme is a New York City based comedian, but he can be found performing anywhere and everywhere. From sold out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to 8-person meeting rooms in Italy, Lemme is constantly trying to make this comedy career happen. A former intern for Conan O’Brien and Jimmy Fallon, Mike has also warmed-up studio audiences for Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and had a short story published in The New York Times.
Broadway World
“It is wonderful when a show can be funny, contemplative, and raw all at the same time, and Lemme has captured all of the above perfectly.”
Washington Square News
​"Lemme turns his personal experiences — the struggle of dating in your 20’s, New York City apartment living and mental illness — into warm, lighthearted comedy. The show weaves multiple stories into a cohesive narrative, addressing difficult and occasionally dark topics with sincerity and hope."
Evan Ginzburg, Associate Producer of Darren Aronofsky's The Wrestler
"When a comedian can not only make you laugh but touch you deeply with his honesty and pain, you know you're watching someone very special. Highest recommendation to Mike Lemme."
Theatre Is Easy
"Mike Lemme finds wry humor in his dysfunctional family and his struggles in New York City, soliciting much laughter from the audience and proving himself to be a comedian of significant talent."
