It's 1986. Meade returns home after her freshman year carrying an extra 40 pounds. Her dad takes one look at his "super-sized" daughter and issues an ultimatum: Shed the weight by summer's end or kiss college goodbye! Flash forward. After losing 70 pounds, Meade runs into her old roommate at her college reunion. The friend asks how she shed the weight. Meade's tale of life changes -- and the confrontation between old friends -- takes some unexpected twists.

Kurt Bodden's Steve Seabrook: Better Than You at The Marsh

Full Price:
$15.00
Our Price:
COMP - $7.50

Veteran comedian Kurt Bodden assumes the role of master motivator Steve Seabrook at The Marsh. In this hilarious parody, which was a hit at the 2012 New York International Fringe Festival, Bodden plays a joyously inane self-help guru who takes you to a safe, nurturing place of empowerment to figure out why you are so disappointing. Steve Seabrook doesn't want you to change, he wants you to blossom into a You that's "Better Than You." A veteran comedian and actor, Bodden has trained in sketch comedy at The Groundlings, warmed up audiences for The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn and performed improv at the Edinburgh Fringe.

This was a superb solo act, with an interesting and engrossing story, very good acting and well done character-switching.

I stayed interested the entire time, and the moral of the story was weaved in with the comedy, so it never felt preachy.

At the end, nearly the entire audience (the theatre was packed) gave Pidge a well-deserved standing ovation.

The act that precedes this performance ("Memphis on my Mind") was also quite good, especially the character-switching along with the corresponding southern accent-switching.
