VISIONARY

----

Does fortune actually favor the bold?

Linda Labia quit her job. When she puts on a documentary about the world’s most forward thinkers, her life begins to spiral as she makes a desperate move that could ruin everything she’s ever wanted. Rousing, flirtatiously satirical, and based on a semi-true story, VISIONARY explores what it means when the brightest minds aren’t necessarily the best.

Featuring dynamic characters, musical bits, and an anxious woman in her living room, VISIONARY is a comedic solo show written and performed by Leah Jereb.

Co-produced by Steve Han (HBO, CBS, FX, UCB, Second City)

Advising by Phyllis Katz (Groundlings founding member, Showtime, CBS, Comedy Central)
