Description

A one-woman show (written and starring Meg-Rose Dixon) following a diagnosis journey set at the anniversary of her surgery. A dark comedy filled with turbulent embarrassing moments flipped in a comical way, verbatim anecdotes highlighting the importance of patient care, terrible doctors, and a few genuine heroes. This is a darkly funny show that laughs in the face of pain while shedding light on a condition that affects 1.5 million people, but has an average diagnosis wait time of 7.5 years.
