A Comedy of Reality and Resilience
Marion
Wikholm is one of the most amazing, life-affirming
comediennes I have ever experienced in 40 years of reviewing live
performance. She's a hilarious, honey-voiced "sit-down comic"
who chose to take the lemons life gave her when she was growing
and
make lemon pies for throwing. Marion is a comic who's really on
a roll -- in her wheelchair. With a few words, she dispels audience
unease by telling us, "I'm not a victim, I'm an opportunist.
If something goes wrong, I learn from it, correct it or blame it
on my husband." A psychologist and "inspirational humorist,"
her mantra is "making a fool out of yourself is good for your
mental health," explaining, "Humor is the light at the
end of the tunnel. Humor is incredibly helpful and healthy."
Wikholm goes determinedly beyond pain and direct to joy with her
humor. Her winsome delivery of nuggets of wisdom wrapped in laughter
gives an audience license to laugh at even the worst curve balls
that life throws us.
Hers is the comedy of reality and resilience.
