What's the first thing Valerie does when she's diagnosed with cancer for a second time in her life? Having beaten lymphoma, she is now diagnosed with breast cancer. Afraid of "losing the girls," Valerie decides to take them out for one last hurrah. This sexy and adventurous solo show follows her triumphant journey as she finds her own "hulk-like" strength to find her superhero within.

Ms. David just returned from a successful run in her hometown of Virginia Beach at the Zeiders American Dream Theater. "My show is not just about fighting cancer, but fighting back from any adversity in life," Ms. David comments. "We all have a superhero inside of us to help us with challenges and obstacles in life. My show's mission is to help inspire you to find your superhero within!"
