 "A savage, often hilarious deconstruction of the clichés of solo confessional plays." – Eye Weekly

Hey, it's a world premiere, everyone! Specifically, a brand new comedy from the team that brought you the infamous 2006 Fringe sensation ‘Swiss Family Guy Robinson'. At long last, a one-woman show created by people who truly understand the genre: three dudes. Canadian Comedy Award winners and Fringe veterans The Shehori Brothers (The Second City, Naked News) present Marco Timpano (Shame is Right, Vito Cazzolungo's Cabaret) as Eileen Louise Kennedy, a woman riddled with delicious clichés and overwrought stereotypes. Join ‘her’ as she sounds off on everything from lousy boyfriends to weight issues to weddings to crazy mothers to that dreaded ‘time of the month’. There are many poignant, smart and truly inspiring one-woman shows in this world. And then there’s, uh, all the others. It’s time to send up the latter, baby!

NOW MAGAZINE (4 stars + 'Critic's Pick'): “Flooded with uproarious one-liners… Timpano lampoons womanhood and solo shows with total commitment and you-go-girl energy. What he gets away with is amazing.”

EYE WEEKLY (4 stars + 'Best of the Fest' list): “The Shehori Brothers’ latest success — which casts a man, Marco Timpano, as self-involved actress Eileen Louise Kennedy — doesn’t attack women, only trite one-woman shows. The versatile, likeable comedian delivers on the material’s promise."

THE TORONTO STAR: “While much of the humour trends towards edgy, the show succeeds because it doesn't feel mean-spirited or chauvinistic, with women in the audience enjoying its self-parodying style as much or even more than the men. Highly recommended."

blogTO "Marco Timpano does everything right. This is absolutely a highly recommended piece.”
