SUMMARY:Stephen Bruno reads from his debut Building Material
DESCRIPTION:As an academically gifted Latino kid growing up in the Bronx\, Stephen Bruno’s family had high aspirations for his future. He attended magnet schools and selective academic programs and was on track to realize his potential. But those dreams were derailed when\, much to his Mami’s dismay\, he followed a girlfriend to Minnesota and a dead-end job. Languishing and unable to get it together\, Stephen eventually moved back home. Broke and eager to make a way for himself–and away from the oppressively religious father wreaking havoc on his love life–the affable\, easy going\, and quick-witted Stephen lands a much-coveted job as a doorman at a high-end building on Park Avenue. \nHilarity and drama soon abound as Stephen learns the dos and don’ts of being a doorman for the rich and famous and witnesses the antics going on behind the front entrance of this swanky building. In Building Material\, he shares those entertaining tales and introduces an unforgettable cast of characters–from Puerto Rican and Albanian doormen battling it out for turf to quirky one percenters to slimy sugar daddies to his peers\, both friends and frenemies. Throughout\, Stephen offers a glimpse into the unfathomable lives of the residents and a sharp portrait of an everyday man wanting more for himself. \nBoth poignant and laugh-out-loud funny\, Building Material is a captivating true tale of class\, failure\, and redemption–and how to come back swinging–from a gifted young talent.
