"Shows talk about isolation and mental health but Bipolar Badass shares the trauma of Mari Crawford's own individual past."

Bipolar Badass is a one-woman show about the humor behind struggling with the illness. In between car crashes and apathetic psychiatrists lies an absurd perspective of “this thing called life.” From an initial diagnosis to family history to manic escapades to somewhat figuring it all out, we see the layers and ridiculousness of an illness that is misunderstood.
