“Blondie of Arabia has all the elements of what makes a monologue profound.”

Two weeks before Christmas, and moments before the Arab Spring, Monica flew
into the heart of the Persian Gulf to work a catering job at a royal wedding party
and ended up biking across three countries in the Middle East. Alone. This play
chronicles the true story of her desert odyssey. Watch the broke, blonde
American swerve her bicycle through close encounters with military capture, sex
tourism, Gulf royalty, three wedding parties and near death. As Monica
perseveres in her adventure as a parade of one, defeating trouble at every turn,
indulging her super-hero fetishism, she discovers her biggest adversary might
be herself.
