Not Me

Not Me is a thrilling and humorous performance adapted from Marianne Dissard’s deeply-engaging and fearless 2019 memoir of trauma and the life of a disordered touring musician. Not your typical recovery memoir – by far – it is a stunning and searing tale from an eccentric musician and artistic powerhouse turned into a beautiful and deeply affecting piece of live performance. The play flawlessly weaves Dissard’s music (Tucson desert rock-meets-Chanson) with excerpts from the book and videos by Dissard and collaborator Julia Alcamo, and showcases performance skills honed by ten+ years on worldwide stages.
