Watch a recorded performance of Alliance Theatre's production of Business Ideas.

By Milo Cramer
Directed by Matt Torney
 

Winner of the 21st annual Alliance/Kendeda National Graduate Playwriting Competition, Business Ideas is a comedy about getting rich. In a too-cute café, a desperate mother and daughter brainstorm get-rich-quick schemes to pay for college (or maybe to make ends meet?), while their hapless server tries to network with a revolving cast of customers (hilariously played by one actor). Inspired by playwright Milo Cramer’s own experiences with his enterprising mom, Business Ideas is an award-winning comedy about getting rich (or not?), and whether money really buys happiness – one cup of coffee at a time. Theatrical Outfit's Artistic Director Matt Torney directs. 

Business Ideas runs on The Hertz Stage at Alliance Theatre, November 16 – December 15, 2024.
