When your family isn't homophobic (but they truly fear your feelings)

June 01, 2016

“She Got Off the Couch” is the comic story of a young lesbian whose family begins to fray when she tries to be frank with them about her sexual coming of age. Homophobia is not the family’s problem. It’s the prospect of candid conversation that throws them bizarrely off balance.

Written by YouTube personality Kati Schwartz and directed by director, fight teacher, and actor David Chrzanowski, “She Got Off the Couch” shines a light of gentle hilarity on what Schwartz considers an almost universal coming-of-age experience: realizing that you and everyone else in your family might mostly kindly be described as “emotionally hobbled.”

Infused with magical realism, “She Got Off the Couch” has five performances scheduled as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival.
