""My obsession with creating based on what's happening in my real life feels very Hannah-esque, and I definitely have a flair for the dramatics," Mulvaney tells Bustle. "Then with Marnie, I do like to be in control. That's actually helped a lot with the one-person show - knowing that if something goes wrong onstage, it's probably on me. But if something goes right, that's on me too.""
""Lena is the best of best of calling herself out on her sh*t while letting us all in on the mess of it," Mulvaney says of what she tried to emulate. "I think I'm a lot weirder than a lot of people know. So getting to let some of that out into the world, but in a more contained space, feels like the right move.""
Dylan Mulvaney revisited HBO's Girls while developing a new play and recognized a shift from identifying as a Shoshanna to seeing herself as a Marnie-Hannah hybrid. The Least Problematic Woman in the World traces Mulvaney's life from a Catholic upbringing to viral fame after documenting a transition, revealing raunchier, less TikTok-friendly aspects. Lena Dunham's candid self-examination influenced the play's tone of exposing messiness. The production runs through Oct. 19 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, aims to mock personal trauma, features 26 characters, original songs, and a chaotic take on The Picture of Dorian Gray.
