The Show
Based on true events this one-woman show tells the story of living with OCD, a once-in-a-lifetime heartbreak, a mental health hospitalization, coming out as queer, and, just possibly, learning how to drive. Written by and starring Ellie Brelis, her darkest moments are told with truth and humor as she finds her unique voice while navigating recovery.
Written in 2020 during a mental health crisis, hospitalization, and six months of intensive treatment, Ellie brings her story to the stage.
Please note this play discusses mental illness, suicidal ideation, and drug use. It may not be suitable for all viewers.
