Laiser Arts Ensemble are back with a hilarious comedy dubbed Mr. Amicus. Mr. Amicus tells the story of a boy, Bartholomew, who leaves his home country of Uganda and finds a new home in a Reverend John’s house as a househelp. However, Bartholomew objects to the idea of him being seen as a lowly house help because he views himself as a friend to the house; thus, he asks to be called Mr. Amicus, I.
This then leads to an interesting turn of events as conflicts emerge between the main antagonists which threaten to leave one of them without a place to stay. Find out what happens to the relationship between the hosts and eccentric guest with very different character traits.
