The Nerd

The top grossing American play of 1986 in London’s West End, the Larry Shue two-act comedy The Nerd, is ready to make its sheepishly funny presence known in North Idaho. A chuckling take on the virtues of gratitude, Shue’s story once enlisted Mark Hamill (aka Luke Skywalker) for its Broadway rendition. Though no Star Wars heroes are expected to appear in this version, the proceedings are still a guaranteed batch of giggles and finely tuned silliness.
