Description
NOW WITH 3 SOLD OUT SHOWS MONTHLY IN THE BAY AREA! SERVING UP A UNIQUE BLEND OF HILARIOUS AWKWARD SHAME, LAUGHS AND ANGST FOR OVER 4 YEARS! HALF COMEDY SHOW/ HALF SELF HELP GROUP: CHECK OUT MORTIFIED IN MARCH IN SAN FRANCISCO AND BERKELEY!Hailed a 'cultural phenomenon' by Newsweek and featured frequently on This American Life, Mortified is a comic excavation of teen angst artifacts (journals, poems, letters, lyrics, home movies, schoolwork) as shared by their original authors - in front of total strangers.
After all, where else can you hear grown men and women confront their past with firsthand tales of their first kiss, first puff, worst prom, fights with mom, life at bible camp, worst hand job, best mall job, and reasons they deserved to marry Bon Jovi? Submissions come from a wide range of participants, from professional performers (comics, celebrities, singers) to total amateurs (architects, ad execs, salesmen). All in the noble pursuit of self-degradation. Share the shame.
