Shit Life Crisis is a hilarious new karaoke play by Olivia Hannah (Braids) about how no one tells you that survival turns your life inside out, especially when everyone seems to be so much better at living than you.
Grace smashed cancer with the constant support from her ride-or-die Abbie, but victory has since started to feel like a bad joke. She tried, like really tried, to climb out of a pit of streaming and scrolling, following Abbie's the 100 step plan to being alive, but no one ever tells you about the fear of it all.This darkly hilarious karaoke theatre show cranks up sing-along-bops that weave between Graces broken pieces as she throws a personal memorial for her full-of-life chemo buddy.
Raw and real, join us to belt along together to the soundtrack of life. Its the most fun youll have questioning life, death, and everything in between.
