It seems like everyone’s got a diagnosis nowadays—Molly Bell just turned hers into a hit hilarious musical! And the critics are loving it. Bay Area Theater Critics Circle Award winner and New York Fringe Festival Best Performer Molly Bell brings her boldest creation yet to her hometown stage. Fresh from development at Theatreworks Silicon Valley’s nationally recognized New Works Festival and selected for NYC’s prestigious United Solo Festival, Miss Hysterical is the feel-good, laugh-out-loud solo musical that transforms serious health and mental health struggles into brilliant comedic entertainment. The creator of Real Housewives The Musical and Becoming Britney has established a creative residency right here in Pleasanton—and locals are discovering what The San Jose Mercury News calls “a triple threat performer, phenomenal, bursting with personality…a flat out force of nature.”
This isn’t just theater; it’s Molly living, writing, and performing her own medical mystery in real time, complete with half a dozen original musical numbers that prove sometimes it’s the humor, not the hardship, that gets us through. With her signature knack for making the mundane wildly entertaining, Molly takes audiences on an intimate journey that finds the funny in the frightening.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness the live taping of what critics are calling a tour de force—an intimate, unpredictable rollercoaster that captures the raw energy only possible when award-winning talent meets live audience. Whether you’re discovering the phenomenon everyone’s talking about or you’re a returning superfan (there’s a brand new ending!), this limited two-night engagement offers front-row seats to theatrical magic in the making.
Content is appropriate for tweens and teens (PG-13 for some language and brief adult themes—think “responsible parenting discretion advised” but also “young artists will totally get it”).
