6 surgeries within 13 months
5 months of chemo with a year
32 office visits with a plastic surgeon
62 physical therapy sessions
76 trips to wound care

All this, and yet Lisa Pedersen, stage three breast cancer survivor, has never lost her trademark sense of humor. And she’s sharing her cancer survival story in the form of a standup act for the next few weeks.

Her show, Laughing in the Face of Cancer, performs at Gorilla Tango Theater Saturday evenings at 11 pm: June 5, 12, 19, and 26. June is also a particularly fitting month for this show — it’s Cancer Survivor Month. More info on the show here >
