Holy Shift!
March 7 @ 8:30 PM - 9:30 PM
Event Navigation
A comedic, time-travelling journey back to the gloriously chaotic 90s, Holy Shift follows a mum who finds herself raising a teen whose idea of rebellion is… becoming a saint. Sin, she understands. She’s been there, done that. But a holy uprising? This she did not see coming. Desperate to decode her daughter’s sudden devotion, she cracks open her teenage diary-an overstuffed time capsule of heartbreak, hope, questionable crushes, and the kind of melodrama only the 90s could produce. As she reads, she blasts the Madonna anthems that once saved her teenage soul-songs preaching empowerment, reinvention, and the attempt to survive adolescence by crafting a cone bra and trying to Vogue without spraining a wrist!
What starts as a bewildered quest to understand her daughter becomes an unexpected journey back to the messy, electric girl she used to be-and the parts of her she thought she’d grown out of!
