PLANTATION – After performing Jamaica Farewell for almost eleven years, for the last several months, Debra Ehrhardt has been touring with her new show, Cock Tales: Shame on Me!
Debra is thrilled to be back in South Florida in Plantation this month (March) at Islands Theatre at 4050 NW 3rd Court.
“When my husband heard the name of my new show, he about lost his mind. I gently explained that his penis was not the first I’d encountered in my life, and that Cock Tales and all my one-woman shows have come from my own life experience,” says Debra.
According to Debra, “when I began writing this piece, I thought I was writing about sex. But, I came to realize that sex is an entirely different subject. There is nothing new in “Cock Tales” about sex. I can’t shed any light on human sexuality. I am no expert on that subject. But, when it comes to overcoming guilt, that is an area where I am an expert. Guilt is something that we have all experienced. It is something that many of us have taught our children.”
To the degree that we can more fully liberate ourselves from the guilt that strangles our most joyous impulses, we are able to live our lives as more fully realized human beings. Hopefully, before the evening is through, I will have worked through my guilt and come to a place of comfort with my own actions.
Opening night in Jamaica was Wed, Jan 25th and her director, Joel Zwick (Big Fat Greek Wedding) was there.
Cock Tales is more personal than anything Debra has ever written and she’s revealing the boldest things she’s never told, but think it’s time to bring these stories to light.
Tickets for Cock Tales: Shame on Me! are $35 at the door and you can RSVP at 949-338-0875 or visit Islands Theatre
Cock Tales: Shame on Me! Reviews
“Ehrhardt’s flair and charisma as a performer are matched by the strength and brilliance of her writing. It’s those combined qualities that make Cock Tales the great show it is.” —Total Theater LOS ANGELES
Ehrhardt’s voice feels fresh and new…hilarious….a slow-baked sense of humor that can suddenly pop off punch lines into unexpected trajectories. SUN SENTINEL FLORIDA
