Sometimes it takes a FOOL to tell the truth.

A smart story about a not-smart guy. Monster Theatre shows are an excellent bet, and Jon Paterson is always worth seeing. He is is fun and talented, managing to play multiple characters while wearing a silly hat. It’s funny, poignant, and just plain good. Recommended!
