"I Killed Andy Breitbart," written and performed by Pam Dinkler, is the unbelievably true story of how the far right tried to use a theater company to torpedo the reelection of President Barack Obama. This outrageous story shines a light on how easy it is for social media spin and misperception to get crazily out of control.
<h3> </h3>
Performed in the Apollo Theater's Studio Theater for&nbsp;eight performances only Sept. 5-27; Saturdays 8 p.m.; Sundays 3 p.m. Running time 75 minutes. Please note: the studio theater is not wheelchair accessible. Recommended for ages 16+
