Molly Dykeman to Bring THE F*CKING WORLD ACCORDING TO MOLLY to IRT Theater, 5/25-6/1

Molly "Equality" Dykeman is a loveable, but barely lucid security guard at PS 339 who dabbles in a bit of poetry, a bit of Percocet and a lot of drink. She may be a foul mouthed, straight talking, lady kissing, mother lover, but she still needs to find a way to pull herself together, overcome bed bugs, love and sissy kids to perform in her first poetry show. Will she succeed? Only Molly can tell...

Andrea Alton stars as Molly "Equality" Dykeman in her hit solo show, The F*cking World According To Molly, which premiered at the 2011 New York International Fringe Festival and made it's European Premiere at the 2012 Dublin International Gay Theater Festival.
