Wits and instincts collide as an actor answers an audition notice for a highly acclaimed director who is perhaps more than they can handle.

This tour de force, fast paced comedy with a dark underbelly received rave reviews during its sold-out run at FringeNYC, and is staging its world premiere at The Black Box in Kansas City! Not to be missed!

"Being Seen is a twisted comedy made for the theater person[...] the script Gustin has written is wickedly smart. The dialogue is snappy, the conversations are genius[...] There was never a dull moment and every beat has a purpose. The storytelling is sharp and precise.”

- Theatre in The Now

“The most nonstop laughs at FringeNYC this year were provided by a show about theatre[...] This is exhilarating theatre, brilliantly scripted by Richard Gustin[...] simultaneously comedic and thought-provoking[...] Being Seen was the very last show I saw at the festival (the 65th, not counting the productions I left mid-stream...), and I couldn't have asked for a better way to bid adieu to this year's FringeNYC. If you're a producer, fund this wonderfully layered comedy about achieving dreams, which absolutely merits a long commercial life beyond the fest.”
