You’re in a real apartment. You are seated on the couch. The TV turns on, and “The Matchmaker," episode 3 of season 2 of Frasier, plays. It’s a classic Frasier-ian farce, in which Frasier is set up on a date with his gay boss, Tom, as a prank. When the episode ends, the credits play. The sun has set outside. It’s dark. You are alone. And then the door opens: It’s Tom.
Please note: this show takes place at a real apartment in Brooklyn, with limited capacity. Exact location will be provided with your ticket confirmation.
