Project Choo Choo

A Cross-Country Comedy Special by Max Carlson

A comedian boards a train in New York and crosses the country to Los Angeles while attempting to make his own comedy special. What begins as an absurd production challenge becomes a funny and personal journey through ambition, isolation, failure, and the need to create something without waiting for permission. Part stand-up special, part road movie, and part portrait of an artist figuring out what he wants to say, Project Choo Choo turns the journey itself into the show.
