Michele Simms and Arnie Ellis, co-writers of Weapon of Mass Seduction talk with Jo Tomalin about creating this show, running at the EXIT Theatre Fringe Festival. Michele performs the comedic Solo Performance show, directed by Arnie. They talk about comedy, their backgrounds, and how they develop shows.
“Weapon of Mass Seduction by NCJ’s Best of Humboldt 2026 Best Stand Up Comedian Michele Simms from Eureka: Veteran actress and comedian Michele Simms invites you to her wacky solo romp featuring the bombastic Betsy Wetness and other unforgettable characters. Playful and interactive, with a dash of naughtiness, this hilarious and heartfelt show promises lots of fun. A self proclaimed pin up, Betsy Wetness, seduces in song. A blues singer on antidepressants tries her best. A commercial jingle producer takes her job very seriously. Weapon of Mass Seduction is a solo sketch show with characters, musical numbers and improv that make up a 45 minute romp of silliness and heart. Directed by Arnie Ellis.”
