Betsy Carroll's Slippery When Wet

by Betsy Carroll

Why was Ariel so into that guy without ever speaking to him? Was it just cuz he had a boat, or was it because he lived in a different biome? Madison from Splash is autistic, right? What's insecure attachment, and why does it – what's the word – burn? Written and performed by New York comedian Betsy Carroll, the show uses the mermaid as a lens to explore neurodivergence, attachment theory, and sexuality-with the uninhibited candor of someone raised by a sex therapist. Her mom, Dr. Barbara Bartlik MD, occasionally drops in for live therapy.
