'I got rid of all the toxic people and there was no one left.' An intoxicating true story of how Gail's cancer diagnosis led her to participate in a revolutionary clinical study prescribing magic mushrooms for anxiety and depression. Set in NYC, this darkly satirical comedy follows fiercely independent Gail as she attempts to navigate dating, illness, true connection and psychedelics. Winner: Progie Theater Award for Outstanding Progressive Plays and LA Hidden Gems Award. 'Magnetic and engaging in her intensity and candour... a masterclass in storytelling' ***** (Gia on the Move). 'Quirky and Uplifting' ***** (BroadwayWorld.com).
