Brooklyn-based writer Alison Leiby's solo show, Oh God, A Show About Abortion, officially opened at Off-Broadway's Cherry Lane Theatre May 5 following previews that began April 25. It will run through June 4.
The work is directed by Lila Neugebauer and presented by Broad City co-creator and star Ilana Glazer. The show sees Leiby telling the story of a momentous summer that involved a scary visit to the "Fertility" section of a Missouri CVS, two root canals, and, finally, a trip to Planned Parenthood.
