Quacks & Whacks: A Cancer Comedy

In “QUACKS AND WHACKS: A CANCER COMEDY,” written by the mother/daughter team of Amanda and Terry Miller, absurdist humor, clowning, puppetry, music, and animation bring to life the very real struggles and triumphs of navigating the three-ring circus that is the American Health Care system. CANCER CELLS SING, dance, and hike through the body of Sharon, a middle school teacher, as gravel cravings, horny doctors, and gargantuan insurance cards threaten to destroy her. The show premieres at the NEW YORK City Fringe Festival with FRIGID NEW YORK on stage and streaming from April 4-20 at THE CHAIN THEATRE in midtown.The play is inspired by playwright and performer Amanda Miller’s mother, Terry Miller – a longtime theater teacher and practitioner now 77 years-old, who has been living with a Stage 4 Lung Cancer Diagnosis for three years.
