Description
Where devised and improv comedy meet women’s health. A bold, funny, and heartfelt celebration of midlife. Girlfriend Medicine is a live comedy experience blending devised and improvisational theater with women’s health education. Created by writer-performer-producer Michelle Dougherty in collaboration with Dr. Becky Lynn, MD of Evora Medical Group and a diverse ensemble of female-identifying comedians and actors, the show uses humor to break silence and stigma around menopause, hormones, and aging. Through devised moments, spontaneous improv, and authentic storytelling, Girlfriend Medicine centers, celebrates, and empowers midlife women—creating a joyful, inclusive space where audiences feel seen, heard, and validated. It’s part performance, part community, and all heart. Because when women come together—unfiltered, unashamed, and unapologetically themselves—something powerful happens. Why You’ll Love It: - A dynamic mix of devised scenes and fast-paced improv - Real talk about women’s health delivered with warmth and wit - A creative celebration of women’s voices at every stage of life - A stellar cast! Along with Dr. Becky Lynn, the cast consists of Sara Beaty, Joana Dominguez, Theresa Masters, Nancy Nigh, Tammy O’Donnell, and Kelly Peplinksi. Technical Director is Sara Yousef with set design by Lisa Lackey.
