What You’re Getting Into
“What We Wore” is a one-woman show that blends stand-up comedy, personal memoir, historical lecture, and a touch of online chaos. If you’ve ever used the hashtag #VintageVibesNOTVintageValues, been filled with female rage from a TikTok comment section, or inherited trauma (and/or a closet full of vintage clothes)—this show is for you! However…
This isn’t a play about clothes. It’s a play about why we wear what we wear, what we inherit from the women before us, and what it costs to be perceived.
Expect storytelling, projections, jokes, trauma (fun trauma), family secrets, and one very public identity crisis...
