It subsequently moved to Berkeley Repertory before making its Broadway debut in October at Studio 54. The production humorously explores Fisher’s chaotic personal life and career. The actress and writer shares anecdotes about her experiences working on the “Star Wars” films and her relationships with her parents, Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. Additionally, she addresses her widely reported struggles with alcohol and substance abuse.
