ABOUT:
Every other month She-E-O’s Anne Gregory and Rebekka Johnson bring together a slate of performers to kickoff their fictional corporate retreat. In between comedy, music and drag acts, Anne and Rebekka lampoon the idiotic enthusiasm and jargon of corporate America.
This month, Rebekka and Anne will be bringing their sold-out Edinburgh Fringe Show back stateside to The Lyric Hyperion. Their show was named TimeOut London, The Guardian and The Edinburgh Evening News's "Top Picks of the Fringe 2023," and was listed as one of the "best rated shows" at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Every show features brand-new guests and retreat theme so, put it on your to-do list for life!
