More information about The Bedwetter

Hilarious stories and snippets of megastar comedian Sarah Silverman’s youth, plus one big surprise that is definitely not revealed in the title: The Bedwetter has it all. Based on Silverman’s 2010 memoir, The Bedwetter sees Silverman’s 10-year-old-self share all her dirty little secrets (possibly in the most literal sense?) with showstopping musical numbers. Set an alert for The Bedwetter tickets on TodayTix.

The Bedwetter musical features an original book by Silverman and Prayer for the French Republic playwright Joshua Harmon. The musical adaptation is based on Silverman’s upbringing and her 2010 memoir, so the script is bound to be a combination of crude and clever – in the best of ways.

Obie Award-winning director Anne Kaufman (the Tony-nominated revival of The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window) leads the production, and Byron Easley brings choreography.

  • Joshua Harmon went full-force with comedic writing in The Bedwetter. It's a departure from the more somber subjects explored in A Prayer for the French Republic, a play about a Jewish family questioning their safety for generations that premiered off Broadway mere months before The Bedwetter did. That play's now debuting on Broadway in 2023.
  • Some of the chapter titles in The Bedwetter book include “My Nana Was Great but Now She’s Dead” and “Hymen, Goodbyemen,” and they inspired some of the musical's songs.
  • Though The Bedwetter's humor is not meant for very young children, Silverman has said she hopes families with children come, as the
