MAFIA ANONYMOUS: THE WOMEN SPEAK is an Official Selection of the 9th annual Binge Fringe Festival of FREE Theatre held at the Santa Monica Playhouse.
MAFIA ANONYMOUS: THE WOMEN SPEAK
An original solo performance by PINA
Fiction, Based on Truth
Nella leads a women’s Mafia Anonymous group — a place where secrets unravel and stories are finally spoken. Rumors have long circulated that Nella’s father did business with the Mafia. She’s here to set the record straight… or is she?
This one-woman show brings to life the voices of many, as Pina channels the raw, untold stories of women entangled in the shadows of organized crime — with humor, grit, and heart.
Pina is a writer/performance artist currently living in Phoenix, whose lifelong work explores the transformation of marginalized people as they wrestle with oppression and the corrosive effect of labels.
BFF is a month-long event featuring a host of productions and workshops. Pina will also be facilitating and teaching a workshop on 10/17/25 at 7pm PST entitled “Secrets & Safety: A Creative Sharing Guide for Writer-Performers”.
Made possible in part by generous grants from The We Are Santa Monica Fund, The Los Angeles Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture, the City of Santa Monica and the Santa Monica Arts Commission, and Playhouse PALS.
