Lauren Weedman Still Blows…Her Way Into The Triple Door For 4 Big Shows

Hey…it’s what you gotta do to get ahead in show business. It’s not about who you know but who you…convince of your amazing gifts!!!

Sorta of a Seattle local, actress/comedian LAUREN WEEDMAN returns to Seattle for four big shows at Seattle’s favorite cabaret venue, The Triple Door on Saturday and Sunday, February 25 and 26. It’s an all new solo show “for people who hate solo shows” with 75% of the show being scripted and the other 25% being…”discovered during the performance”.

Lauren is promising it will be a “wry, contemporary look at what it means to be a single mom, an artist, and a woman in today’s creative economy. It is an exploration of what happens in the invisible second half of a woman’s life, the part after all the traditional stories end and divorce, menopause, and impending financial collapse begin, while pursuing a career in the arts and resisting looming pressures to pack it up and get a ‘real job’…”

As a blogger!

Very old people in Seattle (over the age of 40, thus old) will remember Lauren from the olden days when she appeared on beloved local sketchcom TV show “Almost Live” and from her award winning first solo show, “Homecoming” that debuted at On The Boards a very long time ago.

She’s not a gay but she played the female best friend to the gays in the HBO series “Looking” a few years back. We really liked her in that.

Tickets for her new show are available at: https://tickets.thetripledoor.net/eventperformances.asp?evt=1929

Here’s more blather about her and the show from the website!
