Queen of Fishtown, written and performed by Katierose Donohue Enriquez, is a comedic play that follows the story of a young girl from Philadelphia's Fishtown neighborhood as she navigates life's challenges. Through her witty and relatable storytelling, Katierose brings to life the colorful characters and unique experiences of Fishtown, where humor is a defense mechanism and self-care is a punch line. When Kathleen Burke gets the surprise of her life at her 40th birthday party, it triggers a high stakes battle to maintain her authenticity while facing an even more inevitable challenge. This production makes for an unforgettable evening. Winner: Platinum Award, TVolution for Best Female Solo Show at Hollywood Fringe Directed by Corey Podell.

DI LADY DI

A one woman, coming-of-age, powerhouse, new fairytale musical. Searingly innovative and comedic, DI LADY DI eschews the fairytale glamor of the people's princess to illuminate her struggles in a paternalistic society and dysfunctional family. Under pressure to sacrifice self and conform to oppressive external demands, the Queen of people's hearts bravely relinquishes illusory dreams to emerge from her crucible-chrysalis as an empowered woman of influence, transcending celebrity and transforming the monarchy. DI LADY DI reveals what is under the looking glass, taking an unflinching gaze into the heart and mind of an icon in turmoil, evocatively expressing lessons learned from her private journey. Through beautiful, multi-layered harmonies and incisive lyrics, Di Lady Di celebrates the transformative possibilities of looking inward, overcoming familial trauma, and the ineffable power of a woman's intuition.

QUEEN OF FISHTOWN

A character-driven solo show set on a stoop in Philadelphia, where humor is a defense mechanism and self-care is a punchline. Kathleen Burke's not mad that her Fishtown neighborhood has gentrified around her, but when she gets the surprise of her life at her 40th birthday party it triggers a high-stakes battle to maintain her authenticity while facing even more inevitable change. Profound and profane, "Queen of Fishtown" is a love letter to the historically overlooked and unappreciated city of brotherly love and working-class women everywhere.
