In the humid chaos of spring break in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida, three New Orleans buddies drag their unpredictable pal Mannie along for a wild getaway. Fresh off an accident that scrambled his wires, Mannie isn’t just along for the ride—he’s a ticking time bomb with a taste for Mad Dog and a habit of turning into a howling dog (or worse) when the booze hits.

What starts as a simple hunt for cold beer and college girls in a beat-up pickup truck quickly spirals into a frantic, hilarious, and painfully real search through the night. As Point, Alex, and Mickey bicker, blame, and chase shadows, Losin' Mannie peels back the layers of loyalty, stupidity, brotherhood, and the heavy weight of looking out for one of your own—especially when he’s the last person who wants to be looked after.

Raw, profane, and unflinchingly funny, this award-winning play captures the gritty heart of New Orleans street life with razor-sharp dialogue and characters who feel like they stepped straight out of a shotgun house on Sixth Street. Part buddy comedy, part dark slice-of-life, Losin' Mannie is a wild ride that asks: How far do you go for a friend who’s already lost?

Perfect for fans of gritty Southern drama, dark humor, and unforgettable ensemble casts in the tradition of David Mamet or early Sam Shepard.
