A Gift of Madness

By Nancy Knowles

Produced by Gyre Arts

A GIFT OF MADNESS, written and performed by Nancy Knowles, is a solo play with masks and song about two artists, two traumas, and one family’s legacy of laughter.

Visit the official website for more information.

In turns hilarious, heartbreaking, and transcendent, a woman and her mother juggle grief, the absurd, and each other. Choosing how over if, two gritty artists swing fists at fate, thumb noses at demons. After tragedy, if you dare hope, the rest is strategy….

"The way you brought the edge of madness to the stage was brilliant… "
—Christine D, audience member
