Original Joe's Restaurant, 144 Taylor StreetSan Francisco Impale. Exhale. Repeat. Seven suicide attempts. An arm embroidered with scars. Taking your salvation where you can get it: myths and bibles both holy and profane, Italian psych ward travelers, a blues legend howling along a dusty road, red velvet cake, a whispered sweet something in a language you will never understand. Winner of the Best Female Solo Award at the 2004 SFFringe for her show some life, Mia Paschal returns with the story of a cutter, scarred and tethered by the absolute chaos of borderline personality disorder; so absurd, it might even be funny.. So... Inhale. Impale. Exhale. Repeat. Playwright/Actress: Mia Paschal BIOGRAPHIES: MIA PASCHAL (playwright/actress): Founder and artistic director of chaotic heart and Heroes Theatre Company, Mia moved to San Francisco from Milan, Italy to study with Ed Hooks.

CURTIS OVERACRE: Curtis hails from the land of where the wind comes sweeping down the plain. Growing up rurally, he had a lot of spare time to create a fantasy world to live in, which drew him to the theatre. He began by volunteering to help with costumes and make-up for the Tulsa Opera and Moves Dance Co., The Fat Bottom Revue, and Vile Jelly Theatre. Curtis O. went with the S.F. Buffoons to the New York Fringe Festival, where he met the Banana Bag and Bodice folks and worked with the Sandwich for the 2003 S.F.

He designed the lighting for all three full productions of chaotic heart's "some life" in 2004 and 2005.
