Mija: one bitch's tale addresses identity, trauma, the word "bitch" as a pronoun

Theater | Pittsburgh | Pittsburgh City Paper: Nicole Gallagher is looking for something.

And it’s not just her black skinny jeans, although she does spend the first minute or so of her one-woman show, Mija: one bitch’s tale, in her underwear, hunting for them around the stage. Once she pulls the pants on, though, she sits down in an armchair, addresses the audience as her therapist, and tells us what she’s really looking for: A mother. And more importantly, herself.
