RUNAWAY PRINCESS Comes to Rochester Fringe in September

 The 2023  Rochester Fringe Festival presents Mary Goggin’s multiple award-winning show, Runaway Princess, a Hopeful Tale of Heroin, Hooking and Happiness.

“Once upon a time, there was a Princess born to a King and Queen who were banished from the island of Ériu and forced to flee to America in a coffin ship.” Former New York City call girl Mary Goggin shares the true, award-winning story of her Irish Catholic traumatic upbringing, alcoholism, drug addiction and prostitution. The multitude of characters she encountered in her journey from utter darkness to absolute joy, spring to life in this one-woman tour de force, all told with dark humor, unflinching honesty and unsentimental pathos. This is an important show.  

Mary Goggin is a New York based actor born to Irish emigrants, raised in the Bronx.  A professional union actor for 25 years, Mary has since appeared in numerous stage productions, television series, films and commercials. www.marygoggin.com
