A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Gynecologic Oncology Unit at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center of New York City

A Funny Thing Happened…follows two mismatched strangers—a struggling young comic named Karla and a wealthy divorcee named Don—who happen to meet in the hospital room where both of their mothers are being treated for cancer. Forced to confront their new reality, Karla and Don cope with raunchy humor and demonstrate how comedy and tragedy often operate in tandem in this insightful 80 minute one-act play.
