What happens when a lifelong journalist stops chasing headlines and starts chasing his own life? In Emil Amok, 69: Less News, More Life, American Book Award-winning writer and former NPR host Emil Amok Guillermo delivers a hilarious and heartfelt one-man show about identity, family and the cost of living in a 24/7 news cycle.


From newsroom absurdities to personal revelations—including a surprisingly philosophical avocado tree—Guillermo blends sharp satire with deeply human storytelling. This is comedy with perspective: a show that invites audiences to laugh, reflect and maybe even breathe a little easier.
