Mychelle Colleary talks to Kate Saffin about her first experience of developing a solo auto biographical show. Without giving too much away about the content she shares some of the influences, the work in getting this far and the challenges of navigating the Fringe for the first time.
Ambitious Underachiever is an musical one-woman show at the Voodoo Rooms (PBH Free Fringe) recounting undiagnosed traumatic brain injury, way too many prescribed drugs, defying medical convention, and late breaking self-acceptance. Includes original songs by Mychelle Colleary herself alongside classic tunes by Sondheim, Strayhorn, and Chaplin.
