In this critically acclaimed solo-show, monologist, English teacher, and writer Becky Bondurant threads her coming-of-age narrative through a Freudian needle, weaving from eating disorders and female orgasms to circumcision and breastfeeding against a backdrop of political crisis. A tale of political and sexual awakening in the Post-Truth era that is by turns filthy, frank, and philosophical, Penis Envy, received praise from The Washington Post when it premiered as part of DC’s Capital Fringe Festival 2024 and was named among the “Best of Fringe 2024” by DC Theater Arts.
