Recommended ages 14+
Welcome to Dream City, where the grass is green, the money is greener, and Missy Jones wakes up every morning to a life supreme. Why then, does everything feel wrong? Why is it, with a loving husband, a bouncing baby at her side, and all the good sex a gal could ask for, that Missy spends each day feeling less like herself and more like a Parody of a Person? A musical day-in-the-life satire about gender roles, identity, and the high price of meeting expectations. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll suddenly ask yourself why you’re rooting for murder.
