This is a solo show about living with trichotillomania. You might not know what that is, but don’t worry, you’ll find out when you see the play. You’ll meet a teenage girl with an undeniable secret that no one seems to notice, so she hides in her basement cubicle wondering if anyone will come downstairs. Whoa, did that get too dark too fast? Let’s try this again: TRICH is a depressing super fun show about mental health, isolation, and forging a path toward recovery through humor, vulnerability, and far too many 90s references.

TRICH was the top-selling play at the 2021 United Solo Theatre Festival in New York City, winning both the Best Actress and Audience Choice Awards. In December 2023, it had a successful, sold-out run — to rave reviews! — at Luna Stage and was named one of the top fifteen New Jersey theatre productions of the year by NJArts.

We are working hard to secure future productions of TRICH to continue providing space for safer and more informed conversations surrounding mental health. We plan to produce our own run in New York City, perform the show regionally, and eventually tour. Whether you're able to give $5 or $500, you can help us continue this necessary work. Every donation is tax-deductible. If you're interested in investing, please contact us at info@trichplay.com.

We thank you as always for your support!

Gratefully yours,
Jenn and Becca

WHO WE ARE

MISSION STATEMENT
We choose projects that dare us to step into unfamiliar territory. Through empathy, humor, and bold simplicity, we share stories that embrace the impossibilities of life, love, and art. We foster a community of artists who choose to take risks with us and, through the work, incite conversation about our world. We want you to be a part of that conversation.
