Optimistic Personality Disorder
If a TED Talk and a tequila shot had a baby, it would be this show.

A One-Woman Inspiring Comedy Show by Merit Kahn

What do you get when you mix a stand-up comic, a master storyteller, and a woman who’s been through some things? You get Optimistic Personality Disorder — a hilariously healing one-woman show that proves laughter really is the best therapy (no co-pay required).

From cringe-worthy parenting moments to wildly inappropriate dating stories, Merit Kahn turns 50 years of life into a comedy cocktail of real talk, raw emotion, and razor-sharp wit.

You’ll laugh. You might cry. You’ll definitely leave feeling better about your own life.

It’s part stand-up, part theater, part TED Talk — all heart.

Grab your girlfriends, your grown-up kids, or come solo and meet your new favorite people.
Just don’t miss it.
