Triple Espresso-a highly caffeinated comedy is about…

  • Three guys
  •  A coffee house
  •  An utter lack of common sense
  •  Climbing the ladder of success, downwards
  •  Dust storms in Nebraska
  •  Things that disappear…and reappear
  •  A gorilla in a music contest
  •  Hand shadow puppets
  •  The single most embarrassing moment ever broadcast on live national television
  •  The funniest show you will see this century!

Triple Espresso tells the story of three guys whose bid for showbiz fame and fortune ended in 4-minutes of magnificent failure on national television. Hugh ButternutBuzz Maxwell, and Bobby Bean tell their rags-to-rags story earnestly, with hysterical results. Butternut is a musician, a vulnerable soul with a lounge lizard smile; Maxwell is an uncertain magician with an attitude; and Bean is an irrepressible, all-over-the-map entertainer with big dreams. The laughter is infectious and the comedy appeals to everyone from first graders to college students to baby-boomers to grandparents.
