TigerBear Productions (Producer, Jerome Joseph Gentes) will present the world premiere of Prince Charming, You’re Late, a solo show written and performed by Billy Hipkins and directed by Perry Dell’Aquila (I Never Promised You...Rose Garden at The Triad) at Theatre Two at Theatre Row (410 West 42nd Street New York, NY 10036), from June 29-July 23.

Billy Hipkins appeared on Broadway for ten whole weeks in Anna Karenina, The Musical, toured as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, and had lines on every soap opera that began with a vowel. His first solo show, The ALSO-RAN is viewable on his YouTube channel (along with several Miss Lindsey Graham videos), and when not posting snarky/informative videos, he happily works in Broadway wardrobe departments–27 shows to date. Prince Charming, You’re Late is Hipkins' true-life fable, a one-man middle-age-ed cautionary tale warning us to be careful who you crush on, or you might just get crushed. 

Once upon a time, the show recounts, a boy named Billy waited patiently for his Prince Charming to rescue him from his life among the commoners, so they could live happily ever after in some far-off kingdom where there would be lots of waltzing. And princess dresses. Many years passed before, one day, Billy’s Prince finally arrived, in the flesh! He was a noble, handsome, and downright charming man. Half Billy’s age and straight as an arrow.
