Details
"LADY ADHD" leaps from the perpetual-motion mind of comedian, quirky genius, and overall rather loud person, Blaire Postman. Part alt stand up, part Ted Talk, this one of a kind solo show combines Blaire’s signature flip chart comedy pieces with running commentary about her life with long-undiagnosed ADHD, and some lessons learned where the two intersect. “LADY ADHD” is an unexpected, high-energy tour inside this comedian’s brain, including a deeper look at the unusual patterns and connections she sees in ordinary things that go unnoticed by most of us, and how that ability can make everyday items and experiences entertaining, fun and, occasionally, even revelatory.
As one reviewer noted: “Imagine if all the open tabs on your computer from a weekend of spiraling down Wikipedia rabbit holes were then woven into a cogent and brutally funny theory about the brain, art, aging, Americana and The Self.”
