STUNG! - Desert Foothills Theater - April 17-19 2026



Written by Andrea Markowitz
Starring Pat Drapac

A Full-Length Solo Biodrama about a Real-Life Con Woman

Scottsdale, Arizona con woman Sue Ellen Allen steps out of Perryville Prison and into the spotlight, reborn as a champion of criminal justice reform. Inspired by Sue Ellen's personal narratives, her con victim's recollections, and other actual events, STUNG! blurs the lines between performance and testimony, and between transformation and redemption. Insisting she was innocent of all charges, Sue Ellen rallies against an inhumane incarceration system that she’s determined to redress. While her prison reform advocacy finds success, her self-advocacy falters. In her zeal to appear blameless, she confesses to more than she intends, leaving her audience to wonder if the suffering she witnessed and endured behind bars ignited a noble new calling, or just another con. Darkly funny and full of surprises, STUNG! is a stunning posthumous tell-all from a woman who lived more than one life.
