Laugh Your Heart Out at Arts Center Theatre

The Marco Island Center for the Arts’ Arts Center Theatre proudly continues its Encore Series with the updated version of the critically acclaimed solo comedy, Peter Fogel’s ‘Til Death Do Us Part… You First! Two performances will take place on Wednesday, August 6, 2025, at 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM.

Back by popular demand and better than ever, this new, updated version of Fogel’s one-man tour-de-force adds fresh material and deeper insight to an already hilarious and touching story about the rollercoaster of love, dating, and relationships. Written and performed by Peter Fogel, and directed by Academy Award-nominee Chazz Palminteri, this 90-minute show is a laugh-out-loud, fast-paced monologue packed with relatable anecdotes and larger-than-life characters.

The journey begins when Fogel receives a greeting card from Palminteri, who agrees to direct the show on one condition: that Fogel tells the honest truth about his romantic misadventures. What unfolds is a captivating evening full of wit, heart, and storytelling as Fogel relives his past relationships—from awkward dates to painful breakups—with humor and vulnerability. Palminteri’s recorded voice floats in and out as the wise “therapist,” guiding Fogel to confront his fears and flaws in love.

Audiences of all ages will be entertained by Fogel’s rapid-fire delivery and hysterical impressions, all while connecting with the deeper message about personal growth and the quest for lasting love.
