Join the Minnewaska Showstoppers for an evening of food, laughter, and classic British comedy with Invisible Eddie by Becky Kimsey.
Invisible Eddie is a hilarious new comedy about Eddie a timid introvert still living in his aunt Mary’s flat in London. When he loses his job, Mary and her fiancé George decide to have Eddie hypnotized to make him feel invincible around strangers. Unfortunately, the Hypnotist (who has had a few too many) mistakenly convinces Eddie that he is invisible around strangers instead. Throw in a cockney superintendent, a lustful landlady, a blustering boss, a blind Bonny, and a baited barkeep at the Cock and Poppy Pub and you’ve got yourself a cracking good British Comedy!
