Smoker

Smoker is award-winning New York monologist Bob Brader’s acclaimed solo comedy about his 28-year love affair with smoking and how they broke up. As he tries to leave his first love: “those sweet Camel lights” Bob realizes all the complex connections he has through smoking: how it helped him through a turbulent childhood, created jobs, opportunities and community, and one particular connection almost too precious to let go. At once hilarious and cautionary, Smoker expertly illuminates addiction with universal resonance.

Host Jude Treder-Wolff will facilitate a post-show talkback and Q&A featuring  John Martin, Suffolk Co. Dept Of Health, a nicotine addiction expert and Suzanne Bachner, the show’s director.
