"I NEED A HERO"
CREATED AND STARRING KAYLA ENGEMAN
"I Need A Hero" features dancing, projection, singing, power points, voice-over, and embarrassing home videos from 1998 to show the audience all the ways Kayla needs to be rescued: whether it's from living at home with a loud Italian mother, going to endless weddings of her girlfriends, trying to walk home from a bar down a dark street, or losing a friend in a sudden accident. The show progresses through a list of trivial and serious grievances while using music, multimedia, and comedic storytelling to hit on themes of grief, anxiety, death, dating, family, friendship, childhood dreams, and trauma.
Kayla Engeman is a comedian, writer, & actor based in Brooklyn. Her solo show I Need a Hero was recently featured off broadway at United Solo Theatre Festival, Milwaukee Comedy Festival, and at Frigid NYC's Estrogenius Festival. She has trained with Upright Citizens Brigade and the director of Mike Birbiglia’s works such as Sleepwalk with Me, Seth Barrish. She has performed improv, sketch, and stand up at many indie venues and competitions in NYC. Her dreams include starring on a comedy TV show and meeting Judge Judy. You can see her work and more at www.kaylaengeman.com.
