Erma Bombeck: At Wit’s End
written by Allison Engel and Margaret Engel
A comic look at one of our country’s most beloved voices. Erma Bombeck captured the frustrations of her generation by asking, “If life is a bowl of cherries, what am I doing in the pits?” Discover the story behind America’s wildly popular humorist who championed women’s lives with wit that sprang from the most unexpected place of all — the truth. This one-woman play reveals Bombeck’s crusading work for the ERA while raising three children, appearing regularly on “Good Morning America” and writing 22 best-selling humor books.
