I Am Betty

Book and Lyrics by Cristina Luzárraga
Music and Lyrics by Denise Prosek
Directed by Maija García

November 25–December 23, 2023

Betty Crocker has helped shape America's homes and appetites for over a century. Surprising to many, she was not a real person! As a radio and television personality, a letter-writing confidante, and a relatable icon, "Betty" has been a subject of both admiration and scorn as multiple generations have grappled with questions of women's role in American society. You'll catch yourself humming the memorable music from this world-premiere production and be inspired to go home to bake something new!
