I did. When I was 17. And let’s just say it was not a good idea.
That’s the premise I explore in Teenage Commando...part of the banner show, Big Plastic Heroes, which premieres during the Fertile Ground ’12 festival alongside Slash Coleman in his own hero-gone-awry story, Last American Gladiator.
Come to the show and find out what happens when a “nurd” tries to be Rambo”and a kid idolizes Evel Knievel.
As the tagline says, “Warning: Trying to be your idol is dangerous.”
Indeed.
