Theatre Asylum Lab (Hollywood, CA)
Compared to Andy Kaufman, Gilda Radner, Monty Python and Lenny Bruce by the likes of LA Weekly, the Chicago Reader and the Chicago Tribune, Abby Schachner has a unique comic voice, one she has honed and amplified in a series of critically acclaimed solo shows. Her latest, Schachner Vs. Schachner, is a dark autobiographical comedy charged with the energy and hoopla of a Vegas-style fight. But don’t come looking for battle-scarred boxers, the match-up here is between Schachner and her past, especially memories of her parents’ headline-grabbing divorce, a fiasco that included a hit-man, an undercover cop and plenty of “evidence.” Nominated for “Best Solo Show” Fringe Freak Award and “Best Female Performance” Spirit of the Fringe Award, Schachner Vs. Schachner, toast of the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2014, enjoys an encore presentation at Theatre Asylum Lab.
