Leaving a Mark: A Comedy Show About Scars by Ophira Eisenberg

Leaving a Mark: A Comedy About Scars, written and performed by Ophira Eisenberg, is a darkly funny, deeply personal look at the scars -both literal and metaphorical- that shape us. From childhood mishaps to near-fatal accidents, botched first loves and a battle with breast cancer, Ophira weaves together a survival tale that’s equal parts stand-up and storytelling. It’s about resilience, humor in the face of pain, and ultimately, the absurdity of being human. This dynamic show changes each night with audience interaction via a scar competition, “Scar Wars” (yes, there’s a prize!). Leaving a Mark is a joyful celebration of imperfection and a show that leaves people laughing, reflecting, and maybe even showing off their own scars a little more proudly.
Raw, smart, and often wildly inappropriate (in the best way), Leaving A Mark is a hilariously raw look at scars, both visible and invisible and the messy, triumphant art of learning to love yourself anyway.
