Sissy St. Claire has scored a television special, and she has some treats in store for her captive yet unseen audience. But who’s the masked figure waiting in the wings? Is Sissy being stalked, or is her desperation for fame giving way to something far more sinister?

Sophie von Haselberg (daughter of the divine Bette Midler) is a force to be reckoned with as Sissy - heaving and begging through dance numbers, lavishly corny monologues, and awkward avant-garde skits – but as things go wrong and Sissy’s panic rises, well, the show must go on.

Written and directed by Amanda Kramer (Please Baby Please, SWIFF’23), Give Me Pity! is a star-spangled-soft-focus descent into kitsch hysteria.
