Inside the performance

Sound, stage & company

Onstage company

Documented collaborators

Born from a bold blend of storytelling and original music, D-cup Diatribes is a theatre piece that follows seven characters—six women and a young girl—through intimate monologues and ensemble scenes centered on body image and breasts. World-premiered in Chicago in 2009, this show pairs sharp wit with heartfelt honesty, inviting audiences to reflect on vulnerability, body positivity, and health. The piece is rooted in community and charity, aligning with the Breast Cancer Network of Strength to spotlight breast health and awareness.
