Broken Bone Bathtub

See it if You like a real, raw performance in unusual setting. Siobahn is a great storyteller and knows how to engage the audience, A fab experience!

Don't see it if You don't like the company of others or are not willing to share. If you are not open to new experiences or need a traditional "show."

See it if you like immersive, very VERY up close and personal theater.

Don't see it if you don't like audience participation, small spaces, stories about youthful angst or perching on a toilet or a tiny stool for an hour or so.

Also Siobhan is very talented and this is a singularly unique experience. She seemed nervous at the top of the show which initially heightened the artifice of the exercise, but she settled in and was natural and engaging. I've never seen anything quite like it; fans of theatrical immersion shouldn't miss it. Oh, and you will see her boobs.... Read more Read less

Also My son and daughter-in-law (both of whom are mental health professionals) decided to take me (a mental health professional and author) to see "Broken Bone Bathtub".

I didn't know what to expect but I was delightfully surprised. Siobhan's "intimate" presentation courageously described the human conflicts that plague most of us: wanting to be emotionally strong but suffering periods of great despair; wanting to be fiercely independent but needing to maintain intimate physical and emotional connections;
needing to communicate one's deepest feelings but hoping at least one person will understand her and not judge her.

The sincerity in her eyes builds trust in her audience, and her genuine interest in them encourages them to share their "stories" as well.

My life is dedicated to helping others build trust, communicate easier and develop healthier relationships during these difficult times. Siobhan has created an original, daring work that intimately portrays the same goals. A must see!... Read more Read less
