SHELLS

Sunday, June 7 at 9:30 PM

"Real tragedy and painful humor... like a Beckett character" - Justin Boyd, The Brooklyn Rail

"Heartbreakingly real, hilariously relatable" - Jane Borden, Time Out NY, Critic's Pick

Fresh out of a less-than-fulfilling relationship, Michelle "Shells" Hoffman is ready to shed her 9-to-5 facade and convince her ex that she is more than just a successful JP Morgan Senior Analyst. Hopping from hilarious original songs to tales of the "rough" life, Shells feverishly attempts to convince her audience and her ex that she is finally "over it." Armed with a glass of Shiraz and a penchant for drunk-dialing the one person she should not, Shells demonstrates that the fabulous Sex and the City life she thinks she is living and the life she actually leads are two very different things. Hilarious, engaging and ultimately quite poignant, SHELLS leaves audience members cringing and saying, "I know her," or worse, "I am her!" $15
