Writer/Producer: Dawn Branch

Plot:
“Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia” centers on two women working to overcome one’s anxiety. Hairstylist Nora brings her best friend, Elle, to her soon-to-open salon for a haircut. However, Elle’s all-encompassing anxiety leaves her unwilling to sit in the chair. Quickly devolving into a scene of catastrophizing, this is a sometimes silly play confronting friendship, trust, fear and growth.

This is the first Fringe for everyone on the Hippo team!

Content warning for strong language and discussions of sex and sexuality.

This ticket price for this play is $15.
