Nursing is My Life

Solo Theatre - Charley Karlotta - Ages 12+ - 75 mins

What really goes on in a hospital? 250,000 deaths due to medical errors. Charley, a registered nurse, spills hospital tea through catchy tunes and wild tales from the bedside. She is great at standing up for her patients, but will she ever figure out how to stand up for herself? Now Charley is wanting to retire, but she can’t. Life did not go according to plan. If she had it to do all over again would she be a nurse? Not wanting to be a nurse in the first place, she longed to be an entertainer. Her story of her yearning to perform, has moments of personal victory, but she always remains in financial survival mode. Charley always believed that nursing *****, but in the end she discovers that yes, nursing *****, but it does not have to. Unfortunately “about one-fifth of registered nurses nationally are projected to leave the healthcare workforce by 2027”, per NCSBN (National Council of State Boards of Nursing). This is what every nurse, future nurse and prospective patient (that means everyone) needs to know!
