Comedy / show
English original text
A very entertaining award-winning feminist show / comedy about female desire, male psychotherapists and their private parts. The play was inspired by the 1965 film material “Three Approaches To Psychotherapy”, also known as The Gloria films. Gloria was a 30-something newly divorced single mother who gave permission – intended for educational use only – for her to be filmed during sessions with three different psychotherapists to show the differences in their therapeutic approaches.
The three therapists are performed by a woman in her 50ies, while Gloria is played by a woman in her 30ies. They are accompanied by a female musician in her 30ies.
