“REBELLIOUS, PLAYFUL…
I DEMAND JUSTICE FOR GLORIA.”
– The New York Times  Critic’s Pick

 

Gloria Szymanski was betrayed in 1965 when her private therapy sessions were made public without her knowledge. She is gloriously avenged by Gina Moxley’s irreverent, gutsy, hilariously funny, and strangely moving mash-up of punk rock, satire and yes, therapy.

"An indelible stage picture I won't forget soon
