“
In this fun, biting, one person show, Gogerty lays out the difficult landscape created by the language used to describe people on stage, as well as the ambition it takes to be seen on it. The varied lives that stories hold within us and how those stories are malleable but nevertheless impactful on the ones who read them, are presented in a creative and personal way. ”

“
A stupendous exploration of the limits of the self and the canon, exploring the boundaries and roles set for the human in the world and carving out potential alternatives. Gogerty draws us in with humor and plunges the knife in when we least expect it. ”

“
A beautifully intimate, fearless one-person show which acts as autobiography, confessional, and bucket list checker all at the same time. What better way for Megan to work her way through her ambition of playing Lady Macbeth than to explain all the reasons why she shouldn't - which winds up being the exact reason why there are elements to that play that are perfect for her - even beyond the femme fatale? This is honest, raw, hilarious, and totally accessible. Terrific stuff. ”

A cornfed Golden Retriever of a person. Not like Lady Macbeth at all.
