Pseudonym - Brighton Fringe
Pseudonym
Part theatre, part spoken word. "Bridget" looks back on her life and contemplates the messy tapestry of experiences that have led her here. She confronts her struggles with body dysmorphia, creative complacency, parasocial relationships, and the brazen decision to move to the UK following a mental breakdown. A raw and intimate look at self-discovery, identity, and the art of becoming.

Praise for Deanna Strasse and her work:

"Ms. Strasse is a wordsmith. She grabs the language and does not let it go." -- Krane Reviews, on "Summers in Prague"

"Deanna Strasse...has created a brilliant piece that is not only interesting but educational in a fun way." -- GJD Review on "Dead Doves and Lemons..."

"Hilarious, great writing, and keeps you on the edge of your seat!" -- Landon Hudson on "The Cafe mocha Murders"
