Further information on the ambitions for the work:
We would love to perform "3 White Guys Named John" internationally, its nostalgic tone has universal appeal. The writer and performer has a strong background in screenwriting and is very interested in developing the script for episodic and film opportunities.
Ever had a guardian angel? Or three? Who are all white... guys... named John? Well, Andrea has. John Hughes John Mayer and Jon Bon Jovi appeared to her. Which is sorta unexpected because she's a black woman. Nonetheless, from grade school through her career as a New York attorney, they inspired Andrea to go where she felt terrified to go. Come hear how the music and movies of John, John and Jon transcended race and lived experience leading Andrea on the path of her destiny. This show is an inspiring, nostalgic mix of comedy and storytelling.
