Brad Zimmerman: My Son The Waiter - A Jewish Tragedy

Brad Zimmerman returns to Southwest Florida with his long-running one-man hit, a comedy that is as heartfelt as it is funny. Drawn from his own life, the show follows a young theater graduate who moves to New York in search of an acting career and winds up waiting tables for 29 years while refusing to let go of the dream. What unfolds is a sharply observed story about persistence, disappointment, family pressure, and the strange, hard-earned victories that make the journey worthwhile.
Zimmerman’s credits include The Sopranos and years as an opening act for Joan Rivers, Brad Garrett, and George Carlin, but this show is rooted in everything that came before. His Off-Broadway success grew out of the real-life struggle to build a career in the arts, and that honesty gives the comedy its bite and its heart. The result is a smart, moving, and widely relatable piece about ambition, resilience, and the parents who survive it all right alongside you.
