Alright: Solving the Problem of Living
Sunday, November 27, 2022 7:30PM ET | Nisha Coleman with Alright: Solving the Problem of Living (Blackbox Studio, Arts Court and On Demand)
In her most intimate storytelling show yet, Nisha Coleman (Self-Exile, Things Drugs Taught Me, Cornichon) takes you on exhilarating, nail-biting, and heart-wrenching adventures. In her signature animated and humorous style, Nisha welcomes you to her world in which she befriends elderly residents in the "forever ward," is rescued by Westley from The Princess Bride, and is locked overnight in the Madrid train station. She also reveals her darkest days, all in the spirit of "solving the problem of living" and learning to be alright with being alive.
