About the Project

Susan Damante is a woman unafraid to tell her story, and her one-woman show pulls no punches. She arrives onstage healthy, vibrant and unafraid, but it has not always been that way—as Damante makes clear in describing her bouts with bulimia and Crohn’s disease, her on-and-off relationship with her heavy-drinking parents and drug-using brother, the ups and downs of her life in Southern California in the ‘60s and ’70s, and her self-reinvention as a manager, mother and actor. Interspersed songs—…lightly embellish her inspiring tale, which proves that while life may not start at 50, it sure doesn’t end there.—Andrew Frisicano, Freelance Copy Editor ‘Time Out’
