Ed has followed Jen back from a party that has ended early. Jen is ecstatic that she may have found "the one," and introduces him to her parents as someone who values her intelligence over her looks. But is that what Ed's repeated utterance of "brains" really means?
This Halloween-type comedy introduces a zombie to a highly-educated family who try to carry on conversations with him that always circle around to brains. Which family members will escape his zombie clutches?
With a simple living room set and props consisting just of a remote control, a napkin, and a bowl of popcorn, He Likes Me for My Brain is an easy show to produce. Costuming, makeup, and behavior of the zombie character can add a lot of fun to the proceedings.
