Coffee. Romance. Heroin. There’s a first time for everything and a last. In his heartfelt solo show, Jack Schultz weaves together personal stories of the highs and lows of love. In 2015 Jack lost his brother Andrew to a heroin overdose, broke up with his girlfriend, and developed an addiction to coffee. Experiencing all three at once helped him see parallel themes in love, loss, and addiction and he tied them together in one universally accessible story.

"Schultz’s performance was first rate: humorous, yet loaded with vulnerability and emotional power. Weeks later we were still talking about some of the issues it raised.” - Jason Whitney, Penn State University Collegiate Recovery Coordinator
"Jack’s emotive, humorous, and powerful performance allowed me to deeply connect with him, and his story of love, loss, and addiction. This show is a must-see!" Claire Openshaw, MA, LPC, Ruth Cohen Institute for Mental Health Education Fellow
