In Inconceivable, Alice Cutler strikes a heartfelt balance of comedy and can-you-fucking-believe-it calamity to challenge what you think you know about abortion, conception, and what it means to be a parent. The subject matter (along with Alice’s physical comedy, hysterical in its accuracy) will be instantly relatable to fertility adventurers who have embarked on the IVF journey and awe-inspiring for audience members who are being introduced to the process through the show. Punchy bits of Alice’s signature stand-up comedy punctuate poignant moments of disappointment and despair and invite the room to breathe. When you finally arrive at house lights up, you’ll sit there wondering how the hell this woman of steel fortified herself to share the story of her family, welcoming the audience into something so personal, so painful. And then you realize it’s because the performance itself has healed something in her…and through that performance, it’s healed something in you.
