Nervosa: The Musical
February 18, 2017 @ 8:00 pm
An event every week that begins at 8:00 pm on Saturday, repeating until March 4, 2017
Nervosa: The Musical! is a full-length puppet show musical conceived of by Rachel Kaly, Sophie Zucker, and Maya Sharma. The play follows Anne (Sophie Zucker), a bulimic ingenue who moves to Nervosa, a safe haven for those who hate their bodies. She moves in with Clarissa (Rachel Kaly), a destructive 14-year-old whose sexual awakening was catalyzed by a school screening of Aladdin. Anne wants to have it all: love, friendship, and a tight ass–but is Nervosa the right fit for her? Or is she too fat?
Nervosa explores mental health, queerness, and duvets. Kaly, Zucker, and Sharma are alums of the Annoyance theater, which has produced comics such as Aidy Bryant, Jill Soloway, and Stephen Colbert. It will leave you saying ‘what da heck?!!!’
