The Presentation Center (Big Nasty Investment Banking Firm, Manhattan) is a highlight.

Darron Cardosa* (Jeff Sanchez) is happy to finally be a part of the Fringe. Around the city, he has been in many shows that you have never seen, nor heard of. Perhaps you saw him as Skeets Miller in Floyd Collins at Gallery Players. He doubts it. Also performs stand up comedy in several venues that you have never been to. Watching HBO, maybe you saw him in the short film, The Office Party. He had actual lines with Ralph "Karate Kid" Machio. Only 17 minutes long, HBO aired it a thousand times a week. In his spare time, Darron paints, selling his work on eBay. www.auditionsinteractive.com/darron/
