Eric Bogosian: Wake Up and Smell the Coffee (2001): Cast

A sharply witty one‑man show, Eric Bogosian brings his acclaimed stage piece Wake Up and Smell the Coffee to the screen, delivering his most incisive, angry and funny performance. He skewers pop culture, conformity, religious hypocrisy and post‑9/11 anxieties through a parade of vivid characters—Satan as a slick salesman, a Hollywood producer exploiting an airline disaster, a dubious spiritual guru, and even a self‑mocking actor. Bogosian’s razor‑sharp satire holds a mirror to contemporary American values with uncompromising honesty.
