After surviving Triple Negative Breast Cancer at the age of 38, Holly Sidell, a regular on the Theatre Palisades stage since her role as Suzette in 2014s Dont Dress For Dinner, felt a calling to turn her experience into a solo show with the wish that sharing her struggles and healing bring solace, hope, and some laughter, to anyone who may be suffering.And so, Deconstructing Holly, called a masterpiece of fervent and deeply honest autobiographical solo work by NoHo Arts, was born. It is not just a show about breast cancer; it explores, with humor (and maybe, possibly, even a lightsaber battle), love and relationships, self-worth, societal and gender expectations and pressures, overcoming disappointment and loss, and, ultimately, triumphing when find our way to who we truly are, underneath it all. seeing that there was, in fact, a point and a purpose to everything and everyone - even if we didnt like it.
