about doing alright
Nicole Travolta Is Doing Alright is a critically acclaimed solo comedy blending stand-up, confessional storytelling, and transformational character work - hailed as “Fleabag meets Hollywood hustle.”
Doing Alright is a bold, funny, and deeply personal account of Nicole’s life as a compulsive shopper who spiraled into debt while carrying the pressure of a famous last name. Determined to dig herself out, financially and emotionally, she found herself on an unexpected path: spray tanning in Hollywood.
What began as a way to pay the bills became a strange, intimate education in ego, beauty, and ambition. The job introduced her to a lineup of eccentric personalities who now burst to life onstage through her razor-sharp impressions - from Jennifer Coolidge to Carrie Bradshaw to Drew Barrymore and beyond.
With fearless honesty, Nicole turns debt, depression, divorce, addiction, and reinvention into comedy that is fast, self-aware, and laugh-out-loud funny.
Bold and unexpectedly tender, Nicole Travolta Is Doing Alright is a theatrical exploration of what it really takes to define yourself on your own terms.
