After a sold-out run at the Hollywood Fringe Festival, Writer & Actor Melanie Johnson is bringing her hilarious and heartfelt one-woman show to the Groundlings Theatre on Monday, January 27th at 8 pm. A girl who was told by her parents, teachers, and peers that she's "special" (i.e. destined for greatness) gets a rude wake-up call when she moves to Los Angeles and discovers she's maybe "Not Special" after all. The show is directed by Groundlings Main Company Alumna Lisa Schurga.

"Not Special" will be presented at The Groundlings Theatre on January 27th @ 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $20. Additional information and tickets can be found here: Not Special. The Groundlings Theatre is located at 7307 Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood. If you have been displaced by the fires, please email boxoffice@groundlings.com to secure your complimentary ticket(s). Enjoy the show!
