Breast Advice

Breast Advice is a play written entirely using true stories. While backstage during a show, the conversation somehow turned to bras and boobs. As a woman with multiple invisible illnesses, the playwright was literally shocked at how many others were together in the crowded dressing room and an extraordinary amount of breast cancer survivors. It was at that moment that Breast Advice was born.
