About the Performances:

My Left T!t – Brandon Roberts presents a whimsical and poignant tale. My Left T!t follows the story of Omie the dog, who embarks on a vital mission alongside Gwen, a woman courageously battling breast cancer. Written posthumously by Gwen, with Brandon’s collaboration, this production weaves together personal experiences, dreams and aspirations while shedding light on the profound impact of breast cancer on Gwen’s life. My Left T!t has garnered critical acclaim, winning the Best Veteran Producer Audience Choice Award and the Critic’s Choice Award for Best Drama at the 2019 Orlando International Fringe Festival, among other accolades.

Artisanal Carcinoma – Jennica McCleary's Artisanal Carcinoma brings a dark sense of humor to the stage. Jennica, a breast cancer patient, transforms her year-long battle into a creative escape, embracing a new identity in burlesque as Jennica Tastrophe. Her journey through 17 rounds of chemo, a double mastectomy and years of recovery is marked by pain, depression and isolation, yet she finds a purpose and "connective tissue" in her artistic rebirth. Artisanal Carcinoma premiered at the 2023 Orlando International Fringe Festival, captivating audiences with its raw and candid storytelling. Don't miss this evening of powerful performances and heartfelt stories. Secure your tickets now and join us in supporting breast cancer awareness and celebrating the strength and creativity of those who face this challenging journey.
