Chick Fight! begins in an ordinary theater, where two women’s night out goes wildly off‑script. When one starts texting during the show, the argument that follows cracks open something deeper—summoning a mysterious voice that orders them into a surreal, no-holds-barred battle royale. As they plunge through shifting worlds—slumber parties, game shows, and superhero smackdowns —the women battle not just the forces that pit them against each other, but the wild impulses that rise up from within. Funny, fierce and heartbreakingly human, Chick Fight! exposes how impossible it is to keep the peace when the system, and maybe our own blood, begs for a fight.
Press
“Talena Laine (She) and Raya Tuffaha (Her) carry the production with remarkable agility. Talena, in particular, is striking in her expressiveness. From innocence to anger, the audience can watch emotion move across her in real time, her transitions immediate and fully realized. One moment she embodies the raw intensity of a street fight; the next, the vulnerability of a teenage girl. It’s quite an impressive and “all-in” performance. […] Together, they create a dynamic that is both volatile and deeply human, handling the physical demands of the piece alongside its emotional weight with impressive control.
