Kimleigh Smith Presents "T-O-T-A-L-L-Y!" At Teatro La Tea August 4-16

Kimleigh Smith proudly announces together with Director Paula Killen their production of Smith's one-woman show, "T-O-T-A-L-L-Y!" playing Teatro La Tea (107 Suffolk Street) in New York City for a limited run - currently scheduled to play August 4-16.

The autobiographical show takes the audience through a journey that is uplifting, heartbreaking and powerful as they witness the story of Smith, first as a young cheerleader, and then transforming into a powerful woman embracing her inner superhero, reclaiming her sexuality and living as a whole, healthy individual who cheers for life! "You must be willing to sacrifice who you are for what you want to become. That's what "T-O-T-A-L-L-Y!" is all about," says writer and star Kimleigh Smith.

The Paula Killen-directed show recently played at the 2009 One Festival in New York City, playing to sell-out crowds, and recently completed a four-day, sold out run in Los Angeles. Ms. Smith's stage credits include Chicago's Goodman Theatre, Lookingglass Theatre and Steppenwolf Theatre's productions of "A Clockwork Orange," "Crumbs from the Table of Joy," and "Puddn'head Wilson." "Puddn'head Wilson," went onto play Los Angeles' Falcon Theatre, winning an LA Weekly Theatre Award. In addition, audiences will know Smith from Garry Marshall's hit film "The Princess Diaries."

"Kimleigh's one-woman show is a testimony to the healing power of theater for both the performer and the audience. Her courage, honesty, raw talent and energy exhibited in her performance were inspiring. I recommend this piece to anyone who wants to see a riveting show and catch a star on the rise. Kimleigh is an artist and this show will wake you up and take you on a ride that you won't forget," says actor BilLy Wirth.
