Valerie David's Award-Winning PINK HULK One-Woman Show is 'Hulking It' to IndyFringe
Actor and playwright Valerie David is bringing her inspiring, comical one-woman show about becoming a two-time cancer survivor to the IndyFringe Festival.
This marks her triumphant return to Indianapolis after performing her solo show in the critically acclaimed DivaFest this past spring in the Hoosier State. Valerie David wrote The Pink Hulk: One Woman's Journey to Find the Superhero Within after being diagnosed with cancer not once, but twice. Her comical take on a very real and scary reality is sure to capture the audience's emotions.
"My show is not just about fighting cancer; it has a universal message of fighting back from any adversity in life with its inspirational message of hope and empowerment," Ms. David said. "I want to help and inspire others through my performances, and The Pink Hulk also has plenty of humor and comedy-guaranteed!" Ms. David exclaims.
The professional playwright and actor is passionate about sharing her sexy and adventurous one-women show that chronicles her extraordinary journey to find her own "hulk-like" strength and superhero within!
"I have been honored and humbled with the impact this show has had on its audiences, whether or not they have any affiliation with cancer," she adds. "A cancer survivor said, 'Your show nailed exactly everything I felt when I was going through my own treatment.'
And one gentleman commented, 'I have never known anyone to have had cancer...neither friends or family, but your story had such an impact on me because it was about living life on your own terms. And that really resonated with me and made me feel empowered to do the same.' "
The Pink Hulk: One Woman's Journey to Find the Superhero Within will be featured at this year's IndyFringe Festival. Interviews available: INDYFRINGE SHOW SCHEDULE Thursday, August 24, at 6:00 pm Friday, August 25, at 7:30 pm Sunday, August 27, at 7:30 pm 60-minute solo show with mature content Indy Eleven Theatre, 719 E St Clair Street, Indianapolis, IN 46202.

Valerie David has received rave reviews during her current U.S. tour of The Pink Hulk, performing it in various festivals and theaters across the country. Ms. David, who has been cancer-free since 2015, wrote the autobiographical comedic drama The Pink Hulk to express the empowerment she felt being able to find humor and superhero inner strength going through two bouts of cancer-first Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and then breast cancer 15 years later. She raises money through The Pink Hulk performances for domestic and international cancer organizations. Ms. David's solo show is directed by award-winning director Padraic Lillis.
