A Brief History of Smoking Cigarettes
ONE YELLOW RABBIT PRESENTS A BRIEF HISTORY OF SMOKING CIGARETTES
CREATED AND PERFORMED BY DEANNA JONES IN ASSOCIATION WITH SUITCASE IN POINT THEATRE
January 27, 29 + 31
7:30 PM
Heather Edwards Theatre
Some habits die harder than we do.
From first drags behind dumpsters to last smokes outside hospital doors, this darkly funny and sharp solo show written by Deanna Jones traces one person’s lifelong relationship with nicotine, memory and self-destruction.
It’s not about cigarettes. It’s about everything you light to keep from going out. From teenage rebellion to existential crisis, this performance will drag you through the rituals we cling to when nothing else sticks.
Inhale. Exhale. Regret. Repeat.
