Audiences who were riveted by 4th Wall's sold-out, award-winning production of JESUS HOPPED THE 'A' TRAIN will find much to love in Guirgis's more recent, Pulitzer Prize-winning play. 4th Wall is delighted to remount its critically-acclaimed production which the Houston Press described as "a glorious time at the theater - explosive, funny, gritty, true." This new American classic follows a retired NYC cop fighting down forces much larger than himself from within a collapsing, rent-controlled apartment. Swirling around him are a host of larger-than-life characters sure to captivate audiences. This production will reintroduce the stellar original cast and design team directed by four-time Emmy winner Bill Pruitt.

The fascinating aspects of the Houston theatre are almost too numerous to count. One of them is witnessing the amazing BIPOC and diverse range of people, places and theaters that inhabit Space City USA. One individual who is the personification of the best of Houston theater is Joseph “Joe P.” Palmore, who is mounting a poetic theatrical experience with the help of Houston staple, 4th Wall Theatre Company. We, as audience members, last saw Joe P., in the remount of 4th Wall’s of Stephen Adly Guirgis, Between Riverside and Crazy, and his performance then was stellar. Now, we get to witness Joe P.’s exquisite poetry along with his peers in Disturbing the Peace.
