The Mushroom Cure is the true story of how comedian Adam Strauss treated his debilitating OCD with psychedelics. The New York Times praised it for “mining a great deal of laughter from disabling pain.” The Chicago Tribune called it “arrestingly honest and howlingly funny.” Michael Pollan described it as “brilliant, hilarious, and moving.” And Time Out New York named it a Critics’ Pick, calling it “a true-life tour de force.”

About Adam Strauss:
Adam Strauss’s work has been called many things—mostly adjectives. He won the New York Fringe Festival’s Overall Excellence Award for Solo Performance, the Eddy Award for Best Solo Show in San Francisco, and the Leffe Beer Craft Your Character Storytelling Competition. He’s lost too many things to list here. Strauss performs nightly at many of New York City’s best comedy clubs—and most of its worst ones.
