NJ MTMPlayers presents the Premier of play, 22 A Day!

Local NJ Playwrights Mark A. Bodrog (Capt. USMC, Ret.) and Hunter Haskins (USMC, Ret.) bring a troubling and eye-opening play “22 A DAY” for their premier performance by the American Legion Post 455-led acting troupe “The MTM Players” for three performances.  Veteran’s Day, November 11th, Nov. 12th, and Nov 13th all at 7:30PM at our legion post (Doors open at 6:00PM).  Proceeds will help Veteran’s suicide awareness and homeless programs.  Tickets are $22 which includes a finger food buffet and draft beer for those 21 and over (I.D. will be checked).

Ticket Link and details of event: https://22aday.bpt.me/

On our opening performance on Veteran’s Day, November 11th, ALL VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY will get one free admission by showing proof at the door.  Just check the VSO/Active Military option at check out.

NOTE: ALL TICKETS WILL BE HELD AT THE DOOR. PLEASE PRESENT YOUR NAME, CONFIRMATION INFORMATION AND IF APPLICABLE, YOUR V.S.O. MEMBER/MILITARY I.D. TO GAIN ENTRANCE.

SYNOPSIS: Mark is a recently retired Marine Captain with a wife and baby.  He is obsessed with the amount of veterans committing suicide (averaging 22 per day).  Along with his marine brother Betts and a crusty old Korean and Vietnam War vet “Uncle Harry”, Mark explores solutions to the high suicide rate among veterans.  He even gets a meeting with his Congressional Representative to discuss possible legislation.  As the day enfolds, Mark continues to count the vets committing suicide.  By the close of the play, Mark suffers a personal tragedy himself.  Will he be among today’s 22?

Adult situations/minor language -Topics: Suicide, minor simulated bloody injury in one scene, alcohol consumption. Parental Discretion Advised. We will leave it up to the parents to judge if their child is mature enough for these tough subjects. (No sexual content-only adult situations/topics)
