This irreverent new comedy from playwright Seth Bockley is a no-holds-barred examination of anonymity, authenticity and the unwieldiness of the wild, wild web.
Ask Aunt Susan introduces us to Aunt Susan, a twenty-something man who moonlights as an online advice guru. When “Ask Aunt Susan” becomes the web’s hottest spot for self-help, Aunt Susan’s boss, a reckless funder, rakes in the profits from women’s everyday woes. But as her online reputation mushrooms, so does Aunt Susan’s web of deceit—and soon the phenomenon is much bigger than Aunt Susan could have ever imagined.
Ask Aunt Susan is for audiences ages 12 and older.
