Produce your show in the 2025 Philadelphia Fringe Festival. Registration is OPEN!
At 40 years old, Chris Davis seizes on ballet class as a way to replace all other addictions -- drugs, alcohol, Modern Family, and the toxic tropes of 90s John Cusack movies. With only a barre for support, Fringe favorite Chris Davis mixes dance and storytelling in a 50-minute comedy that shows you change is always possible, no matter what your age.
