SECOND CAST BEGINS FEB 26!

My First Ex-Husband is a hilarious, no-holds-barred series of stories created by the legendary Joy Behar. With razor-sharp wit and zero filters, Joy dives into the messy truths of love, marriage, and divorce, revealing the chaotic, funny, and often eye-opening realities of relationships. These stories are as relatable as they are outrageous, offering something for anyone who’s ever tied the knot—or thought about untying it.

Led by Joy Behar herself, My First Ex-Husband features a powerhouse cast of comedic icons, including Susie Essman (Curb Your Enthusiasm), Tovah Feldshuh (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), and Adrienne C. Moore (Orange is the New Black). To keep things fresh, each month brings a rotating lineup of luminaries from theatre, television, and film, ensuring every performance is a unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Audiences will meet women married to the mob, their jobs, their faith, money, and—inevitably—the wrong man. With courage and candor, these women find the strength to close the door on their past and step boldly into new adventures. Their stories are your stories—only funnier. Packed with laugh-out-loud humor, delicious doses of revenge, and heartfelt moments, My First Ex-Husband is a touching and riotous celebration of resilience, reinvention, and the joys of moving on.

Whether you’ve loved, lost, or just wondered what happens when romance goes sideways, My First Ex-Husband promises an unforgettable night filled with jaw-dropping stories, hysterical performances, and the undeniable truth that sometimes the best revenge is a good laugh.

The show will run 80 minutes no intermission.
