L.A. PREMIERE & VISITING ARTIST!

A solo cabaret comedy performed by Noemi Zeigler, with live keyboard accompaniment by Greg Zema. Madeline belts, dances, hot flashes, and resurrects her ’90s pop star ambitions through strange detours, celebrity brushes, near misses, and just enough success to keep the dream alive. The problem? Her blunt, larger-than-life mother remains unconvinced. Blending comedy, original songs, pop covers, and audience interaction, Madeline chases the one rave review she can’t get: her mom’s. Along the way, she wonders what happened to her mom’s own dream of becoming a singer. A funny, fraught exploration of ambition, reinvention, and mothers and daughters. Written & Performed by Sexy-Over-The-Top-Neurotic-Wannabe Noemi Zeigler.
