eXpresso tells the story of a business threatened by the looming monopolistic powers and the state of the economy. The piece takes place in a local independent coffee-shop trying desperately to stay in business after a “Sckubrats” opens up across the street. Hilarity ensues as the employees of Brown Coffee House, often eccentric and misguided, all scramble to get business booming again and rid their area of the corporate plague.
