L.A. Homebody
The true story of a woman in her house.

When a young, single professional finds herself in the position to buy a house, her spare bedroom becomes a staging area for several young women on their own spiritual quests, her father’s journey to self-actualize, and her good friend’s illness.
Intimate, heartfelt and funny, Shauna’s storytelling has been featured on The Moth Mainstage and Risk. Her TV writing credits include Take My Wife and Bajillion Dollar Properties.
written and performed by Shauna McGarry, directed by David Crabb
runtime: 30 minutes.

The Anxiety Cure
The true story of a woman on the campaign trail.

A panicky woman with zero experience as a public servant throws herself into her job as a low-level political operative on Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. Solo performer Lizzie Prestel tells a story of political passion and personal humiliation, hope and despair, as she strives to save America, save the world, and become a feminist political hero. Easy.
written and performed by Lizzie Prestel, directed by David Crabb
runtime: 30 minutes.
