Simon Helberg at L.A. Theatre Works' DOCTOR CERBERUS July 14-18, 2010

A coming-of-age, coming-out cocktail with a twist of terror by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, directed by Bart DeLorenzo  WHAT: Doctor Cerberus - Simon Helberg (The Big Bang Theory) stars in a coming-of-age, coming-out story with a twist of terror.

Thirteen-year-old Franklin Robertson is trying to survive adolescence. His parents don't understand him, his brother torments him, he has no friends, and he's more interested in the high school quarterback than any girl. The one bright spot in his life is the glow of the black-and-white TV in his parents' basement. Here, he worships at the altar of the Saturday Night Horror Movie, hosted by the eerie Dr. Cerberus. Before long, Franklin is convinced that only by going on the show will his life be redeemed - by Dr. Cerberus himself!

All performances are recorded to air on L.A. Theatre Works' syndicated radio theater series, which broadcasts weekly on public radio stations nationwide and can be streamed on demand at latw.org
