What's a struggling Hollywood wannabe to do when she meets the love of her life and he's a mega-star with a girlfriend and a reputation for messy personal affairs?

"I KISSED DASH RIPROCK" takes you through the looking glass, into a land of luxury hotel suites, million-dollar mansions, chauffeurs, champagne, paparazzi, psycho fans and carrots dangled on sticks -- told in a unique storytelling style that's part stand-up and part theatre, with a camp sensibility all its own.

Based on dreams, delusions and true personal misadventures, Freeman performs 4 comic monologues that follow the heart on a joyride through Hollywood, Boston, New York & London -- a global chronicle of those from the "right side" of the velvet rope and those who wait tables and hand out leaflets while dressed as giant milk cartons.

This intrepid exploration of art, love, fame and happiness rips the veneer off celebrity, for a piercing look at what draws people together despite the well-meaning advice of friends, family and mental ealth professionals. When fate (and hormones) constantly throw our heroine up against the object of her affections, and a "real" relationship proves ellusive, the only thing a gal can do is get over it and move on, right? Sure. And then the phone rings...
