A socialist is about to be elected president for the first time and Natacha is ready to implement her new political platform. But it is 1981, so first she must tackle the schoolyard bully, French grammar, and practice how to sing the Communist anthem.
You're Good for Nothing I'll Milk the Cow Myself is an autobiographical one-woman show, directed by Kenny Yun, developed with David Ford and written and performed by Natacha Ruck. It tells the true story of three generations of women defining what it means to be a woman in the face of misogyny, expatriation, three world wars... and a crippling addiction to chocolate.
Natacha is a storyteller, media producer and educator. She teaches multimedia storytelling at USF and her documentary work has appeared at the MoMA, the Whitney Museum of American Art, as well as on National Geographic, NBC NY, and on Public Radio affiliates nationally.
