Mike Albo, New York's hottest "It Boy," is heading back to the Boston Center for the Arts as Theatre Offensive presents his latest comic solo show, "My Price Point."  A caffeinated combination of characters you love to hate, performances are scheduled  for April 7 - 30.  Albo previously appeared at the BCA in a sold out engagement of "Unitard."

As a monologist and performer, Albo has completed three critically acclaimed, sold-out solo shows: "Mike Albo," "Spray" and "Please Everything Burst,"  co-written with his longtime friend, Dr. Virginia Heffernan, as well as many solo performances and tours across the United States and Europe.

His performances have been praised in such publications as The New Yorker, The New York Times, Paper, Time Out, The Independent in London, The Boston Globe, the Pittsburgh Tribune, and recently in an LA Times feature about writers who perform.

As a solo artist, Albo has performed at PS 122 in New York, the Soho Theatre in London, The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the Kunsthall in Copenhagen, Center Stage in Baltimore, and at Highways in Los Angeles as well as New Orleans, Chicago, Toronto, Park City Utah, and others.

As an actor and comedian, Mike has appeared in numerous short films and TV spots, including VH1's "Viva Divas" special and on The Food Channel. He was the voice of Jeffrey in Todd Downing's animated short "Jeffrey's Hollywood Screen Trick." He appears as reckless cad Joe Rand in renowned video artist Peggy Awesh's upcoming film "Certain Women" and as a therapist in Brian Sloane's film "Bumping Heads."

His first play, "Sexotheque,"  was produced in Austin, Texas, and New York City in 2000. His most recent play, "Three Women in Indecision," was produced earlier this year at the Kraine Theater in New York City.
