Synopsis
When you’re stuck in a rut, it’s time to do something. Anything. In this comedy about depression, Sherry Wickman has recently earned a degree in art therapy – only to find herself moving back in with her family, where she retreats to her bed until a job opportunity gives her renewed purpose. Now if only her mother would come downstairs, her sister would get off the couch, her first patient would do one of his assignments, her boss would leave his gun at home, and someone would catch the tiger that escaped from the local zoo, everything would be just perfect.
CLTC will donate $5 to SVPP for every ticket purchased for the run of this show using the promo code "SVPP."
