Mary O'Connell / PBH's Free Fringe • Amateur Company

60 minutes•Upstairs Bar
Mary’s life is falling apart, she’s just found out that her boyfriend (that she lives with and financially supports) has cheated on her right before her 30th birthday. Now faced with the consequences of her terrible taste in men, she has to reflect on what "having it all" really means. But before she heals properly she needs to become hotter than ever so she can "win" the break up. A show about love, revenge, forgiveness, and what you do when you hit rock bottom.
