HYSTERICAL

“The best comment Jackie Skinner ever got after a performance sounded like an insult. ‘There’s something wrong with you,’ a woman told her…" – The Boston Globe, May 2025

“…this may turn out to be the funniest thing I see during the festival.” – Plays Unpleasant, Philly Fringe 2025 Review

WINNER of BEST COMEDY and SELL OUT AWARD at NYC Fringe 2025 for her two-hander Jackie & Allison Into the Multiverse.

HYSTERICAL had a SOLD OUT run at Denver Fringe 2026.

ABOUT THE SHOW
A (gorgeous) woman has been performing this room for years. Usually to nobody. Tonight you’re here. She’s been waiting for this. She’s afraid to find out why.

A clown thriller.

There is audience interaction. Nobody leaves their seat.
