The Hefner Monologues
KC Fringe Festival

John Hefner puts on one of the funniest shows I've ever seen in "The Hefner Monologues" at the Arts Incubator. His first monologue about Tammy, and his description of how she's like plutonium had me rolling with laughter...and I never stopped!

Without giving too much away, I'll tell you that yes, John IS related to Hugh Hefner, but all he's gotten from that familial connection is "the name, a story, and a Pepsi."

Through his stories, and his life, John tells of his awkwardness growing up as a Hefner. After all, "how can you make a name for yourself when someone already has?" His awkward-chic drunken dancing, and adventures as Captain Buzzkill are not to be missed!

John, your friends were right when they told you to put your stories into a show. This is definitely "thine own Vagina Monologues."

Remaining performances are Sat at 10pm and Sun at 4pm.
