You're Going to Bleed: An All-American Black Comedy
- Full Price:
- $20.00
- Our Price:
- $10.00
DIVAfest presents Melissa Fall's dark comedy, You're Going to Bleed, about two couples who learn about life, love and what it means to be American the hard way. Anne is trying to get her apathetic husband John in bed, while John is fantasizing about his teenage student Abigail. Meanwhile, Abigail is only fantasizing about having a bigger role in the story and getting her own monologue. Then there's Anne's sister Helen and her husband, whom Anne only married because of his good looks. This drop-dead funny and scathingly honest portrayal of the battle between the sexes is also a delightful skewering of the American theater canon. Before the end there will be a haunting, a glass unicorn will shatter, a dinner party will come to a violent end and -- spoiler alert -- someone is going to bleed. Learn More
Reviews & Ratings
report as inappropriateA fun and high energy glimpse into the inner workings of the "happiest place on earth". Sounds like it may be great for kids and families but for the people working there it's a very different story. Fun stories, great insights, and some scary images to bring with you next time you visit Toon Town!!!
report as inappropriateStrong, entertaining work. My teenage kids and I really enjoyed it.
report as inappropriateAs a employee for the past 21 years of the "mouse", the play had a lot more amusing undertones for me that most of the other people in the crowd. Nonetheless, Trevor Allen is very high energy and his stories of the backstage events were entertaining. Would of been even funnier if he had performed in his old costumes!
report as inappropriateThis show was great!
Even though it's just one guy and no set, he's really engaging and entertaining. The various characters in the narrative are distinct and funny.I enjoyed this show and would definitely recommend it.
The venue's awesome too- they have drinks
(both alcoholic and non) and tapas-like snacks.
