“The most powerful and poignant two hours I have ever spent at a theater.”
— New York Broadway World
“The joy of this performance is in the honesty and the openness and the wonderfully warm and inclusive woman that is Valerie David… Ms. David has the kind of infectious spirit and deeply inspiring story that needs more than a one-woman show… how about a series?”
— Los Angeles Review
“Valerie David, who has the talent of a Broadway star, decided to write this show to share her experiences and empower those facing adversity in life. The Pink Hulk began touring the country in 2016 and Valerie David began accumulating awards for this extraordinarily moving, candid, and insightful show. The Pink Hulk is a 60-minute experience you will not soon forget.”
— Applause! Applause!
Valerie wrote The Pink Hulk as a cancer survivor to express the empowerment she felt being able to find humor and superhero inner strength going through three bouts of cancer—Stage III Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (1999), Stage II Breast Cancer (2014-2015) and then Stage IV Metastatic Breast cancer (2018-2019). Then in 2019, after 5 months of oral medications, Valerie has no evidence of disease—there is no trace of her cancer. Valerie is a true superhero.
