UPCOMING: August 27-30, 2026 at Brick Aux
Everybody’s saying that nightclub sensation Breathless Mahoney is washed up. Between acts at the struggling mob-run club she calls home, she hardly gets a moment’s rest, and she can’t seem to shake those troubling hallucinations. Her world is upended by the arrival of a dazzling new performer, who has more than just sequins up her sleeve. A tragic farce with the flavor of noir in the shape of a musical comedy, HOW TO BE NORMAL AND REGULAR celebrates a woman driven to the brink by the fever-dreamspace between show business and reality, where divas must be seen to be believed.
