About Ask Aunt Susan
Ask Aunt Susan introduces us to Aunt Susan, a twenty-something man who moonlights as an online advice guru. When “Ask Aunt Susan” becomes the web’s hottest spot for self-help, Aunt Susan’s boss, a reckless funder, rakes in the profits from women’s everyday woes. But as her online reputation mushrooms, so does Aunt Susan’s web of deceit—and soon the phenomenon is much bigger than Aunt Susan could have ever imagined.

Ask Aunt Susan plays May 24–June 22 at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago, IL.
