My Stories Your Emails

By Ursula Martinez

23 March 2010 – 03 April 2010 Beckett Theatre

Malthouse Theatre, Melbourne International Comedy Festival,

Theatre Live Art Stand-up Comedy

My Stories Your Emails is an hysterical and uncompromising portrait of herself - and an investigation into identity, relationships, confession, obsession, miscommunication, the internet, fame, sex, loneliness, and political incorrectness.

 

"TOUGH AND VULNERABLE ADVENTUROUS AND FOOLHARDY ... MARTINEZ TREADS WHERE FEW PERFORMERS DARE TO GO." 

— Sydney Morning Herald

 

"HILARIOUS, DEVILISH AND BRILLIANT: MARTINEZ HAS CREATED A NEW THEATRICAL GENRE."

— The Independent on Sunday

 

"MARTINEZ'S STAGE PERFORMANCES LOOK DECEPTIVELY SIMPLE; BUT THIS IS A CONTRIVANCE THAT ALLOWS MARTINEZ TO UNDERTAKE HIGHLY COMPLEX INVESTIGATIONS INTO REALITY AND FICTION, AUTOBIOGRAPHY AND LIES, AND THE NATURE OF IDENTITY ITSELF, HER OWN MOST OF ALL."

— The Guardian
