Lizzy Sunshine, written and performed by Liz Coin, is a solo comedy that explores what it means to love someone struggling with addiction and the coping mechanisms that come with it. Blending clown, character comedy, and audience participation, the show follows Lizzy, a relentlessly optimistic performer trying to keep her show—and her reality—intact as everything begins to unravel. When her onstage partner fails to appear, Lizzy enlists the audience to help carry the performance forward, creating a chaotic and deeply human theatrical experience. Following sold-out performances and five-star reviews at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, the show returns to New York for a limited engagement at SoHo Playhouse during Mental Health Awareness Month.
