Femme Fest 2020: In the Lounge Fran Drescher, Please Adopt Me – Extended! Isabelle Owens
About This Show
This is my pitch to get Fran Drescher to adopt me. I grew up with the tv show The Nanny as my nanny, and now as a parentless adult, I could use a Jewish mother. This is a comedic sing-songy stand up act on why Fran and I would be a great showbiz mother-daughter team.
