The Punchline solo show

Winner of "Best Female Solo Act" and "Best of the Fringe" awards in the 2008 San Francisco Fringe Festival and selected for the Ross Valley Solo Show Festival and Phoenix Fringe Festival.

This bittersweet solo comedy takes an irreverent look at what stops people from pursuing their dreams and asks the big questions: "What's life all about? Why are we here? Where are you hiding the chocolate?" Ride with Alicia through the quirky world of standup comedians, hungry ego monsters, Jewish grandmothers, and wacky gurus.

"She has a lovely show. I really enjoyed it! She is a very skilled writer and performer, with great command of the arc of the story. And the dance was awesome." -Storyteller, Antonio Sacre

"We were rolling on the floor laughing. It's raw, intimate, incredibly vulnerable, honest, and sexy."
-Audience Member, Stephen Blumenthal
