Attorney Street

Axis Theatre
1 Sheridan Square New York

To hear his voice -- that lugubrious bass straight from a Vincent Price thriller or a Charles Addams cartoon -- is worth the price of admission alone. But to be there in person as Edgar Oliver spins his remarkable true-life tales is priceless. Now this staple of NPR's The Moth Radio Hour returns to the Axis Theatre to premiere Attorney Street, the final installment in a trilogy of solo shows charting his life in New York City. Picking up where 2014's acclaimed In the Park and 2009's East 10th Street: Self Portrait with Empty House (NYT Critic's Pick) left off, Attorney Street follows Oliver as he is forced to leave his home on East 10th Street and find his way to his current residence ... on Attorney Street. Between the two addresses lies a very circuitous path that would change Oliver's life forever.
