Immersed in an addictive world of private views, front-row
fashion shows, and endless parties, Anna and Ariel find themselves struggling for ways to keep up with New York’s dazzling social elite. A new play inspired by the life of con artist Anna Delvey.
Brilliant Jerks tells the story of three people – a driver, a coder, and a CEO – working for one tech monolith, but living worlds apart.
