Club Cumming Presents Olivia Miller in Bloody Mary: LIVE! Stand-Up Special This Month

Club Cumming presents Olivia Miller in Bloody Mary: LIVE! on July 17 at 9:00pm. Teen Queen Mary Tudor takes to the mic to rehab her so-called "bloody" legacy in a gleefully vicious stand-up special. Through this highly theatrical and interactive set, "Bloody Mary" tackles the drama every #queenager deals with: divorced parents, sibling rivalry, and religious purges (...oops). Join the court of Mary at Club Cumming as she talks about everything from boys to burnings at the stake. You know, just normal teenage things. Written and performed by Olivia Miller, this irreverent blend of stand-up comedy and one-woman theatricality was shortlisted for the 2020 Les Enfants Terribles Award and will be next seen at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival (programming by the Pleasance).

Originally directed and produced by Olivia Munk and Part of the Night.

All proceeds from this performance will be donated to the National Network of Abortion Funds

Olivia Miller in Bloody Mary: LIVE! plays Club Cumming (505 East 6th Street) on July 17 2022 at 9:00pm. Tickets are $15. Tickets and information are available at https://clubcummingnyc.com/.

The show has also been produced in New York (Club Cumming, The Duplex, Pete's Candy Store, the PIT Underground) and Boston (American Reparatory Theater's OBERON). Bloody Mary was shortlisted for the prestigious 2020 LET Fringe Award in the lead up to the 2020 Edinburgh Fringe Festival; the show can be seen next at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
