Adrienne Truscott’s A One-Trick Pony (or Andy Kaufman is a Feminist Performance Artist and I’m a Comedian)

This show is about Adrienne Truscott’s suspicion, following the runaway success of her previous piece, that anything she makes may disappoint. Through the lens of ‘failure’ comedy icon Andy Kaufman, Truscott mounts the critical feedback loop and rides it, hard. The show is spirited, ribald and funny as hell! Can she hold a crowd in the palm of her hand with whatever material she chooses—even self-abasement?


This show follows Adrienne Truscott’s Asking For Itwhich is a ticketed performance.
