This one-man play will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you question “why we are alive?”
This is a powerful, raw and exposing play which begins when Marcus was hit by a car, the driver quickly vanished, and Marcus was rushed to Cedars-Sinai hospital in Beverly Hills with three hours to live since he was suffering a life-threatening brain haemorrhage. He had a near-death experience, underwent emergency brain surgery, and four days later had a second brain haemorrhage and second brain surgery. As if there weren’t enough problems, Marcus did not have health insurance and the driver had disappeared. What followed was an intense years-long search to find the driver and get his insurance to cover it - which involved finding private investigators, psychics, and so much more.
