LADY ADHD: Observations from a Hyper-focused Mind
Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse
More detailsAbout This Event
On the heels of its packed January 2023 performance, and just in time to kick off ADHD Awareness month, “LADY ADHD” returns to Arlington Drafthouse on Thursday, October 5, 2023 at 7PM.
“LADY ADHD” leaps from the perpetual-motion mind of comedian, quirky genius, and overall rather loud person, Blaire Postman. Part Stand Up, part Ted Talk, the show is an unexpected, high-energy tour of her neurodivergent brain, her signature flip-chart stand-up comedy pieces, and unexpected clarity she’s received about the world and herself where they overlap.
As one reviewer noted “Imagine if all the open tabs on your computer from a weekend of spiraling down Wikipedia rabbit holes were then woven into a cogent and brutally funny theory about the brain, art, Americana, the boxes we try to force ourselves and others into, and the humor that can help us break free of them.”
Awards and kudos for “LADY ADHD”/Blaire include being named a 2023 Finalist for the Yes And Laughter Lab (entertainment industry comedy incubator) and an official selection to be part of the 20th SF Sketchfest (2023); having a featured run at Caveat theater in New York; and profiled in interviews with renowned podcasts including Slate Magazine’s “The Waves”; “Just Between Us” and “A Super Bloom with Candice King”.
