The bestselling humorist who gave a hilarious voice to housewives everywhere comes to life onstage in this new play using her own wit and wisdom.
From her home outside Dayton, Ohio, bestselling author Erma Bombeck gave a hilarious voice to ordinary suburban housewives everywhere, using humor to tell the reality of her life and theirs. Allison Engel and Margaret Engel's At Wit’s End chronicles Bombeck’s fascinating story, beginning in 1964 with the launch of her groundbreaking newspaper column through her emergence as America’s favorite mother, with top billing on kitchen refrigerators from coast to coast. Filled with Bombeck’s own wit and wisdom, this new play paints a warm and funny portrait of the woman who dared to ask, "If life is a bowl of cherries, what am I doing in the pits?" "Immensely entertaining." — TheaterMania
