Thanks for checking out my new show, “The Gisele Show!” We’ve specifically created a version of “The Gisele Show!” for the Cancer Community – patients and survivors, their families and friends, health care workers, doctors and nurses.
In this show I become the loveable and kooky Gisele Nett, an honest optimist from Germany, weaving her charming tales, sketches, and assorted absurdistry. Gisele is a cancer survivor, too, and the show includes tales of her cancer journey, her double mastectomy, and coming to terms with her treatment-altered body – themes relevant to the Cancer Community.
If you’ve enjoyed “Jonna’s Body, Please Hold,” you’ll love “The Gisele Show!”, too. It has similar themes, and is a completely new and different show that you can proudly share with audiences who’ve already enjoyed “Jonna’s Body.” If you’ve never seen “Jonna’s Body,” check it out as well as “The Gisele Show!” Both are perfect for Cancer Community events of all kinds. Both are warm, funny, and inspiring, and will leave your audience feeling enlivened, moved, and joyful.
Contact us with any questions. I look forward to seeing you soon!
