Actor on Parole at Everett Stage at Everett – Providence, RI

ACTOR ON PAROLE – Premiering at Everett Stage April 10th – 19th. All tickets pay what you can!

Actor on Parole is a hilarious and deeply human true story about Ari Brisbon’s two years inside a minimum-security prison. With sharp wit and raw honesty, Ari traces the moments from his childhood and youth that led to the crime, the nerve-racking wait for his court date, and the unforgettable cast of characters he met behind bars.
Through laugh-out-loud absurdity and moments of real tenderness, Ari exposes the cracks in the prison system while revealing the humanity trapped within it. One minute you’re laughing at the surreal situations of prison life; the next, you’re unexpectedly moved by the people who inhabit his story. Actor on Parole is equal parts comedy and compassion—a vivid reminder that even in the most broken systems, human stories still shine.
