About the Show
TRAGIC MAGIC is a riveting saga of tragedy, recovery and transformation. As a daughter of Lithuanian “DP’s”, growing up in Chicago and needing to fit in, Sigute experienced the ‘dragon’ of addiction early. She led a dual existence most of her life, managing to balance the ‘good little girl vs. the party animal’. Until she couldn’ t.
The show shares engrossing stories of her hanging with the bad boys, harrowing blackouts at a young age, #metoo casting couch shame, wild escapades as a star manager on Rodeo Drive in the 90's, endangering her young daughter, and confrontation with the law.
Getting sober, transforming in India, and reconnecting with her first love - nature - Sigute weaves her journey with honesty, pathos, song, and humor, and honors her Lithuanian roots through songs and the Pagan ritual of hugging trees.
Within Sigute's story is hidden the tragic loss of her brother, who had struggles of his own. His beautiful and haunting poetry appears throughout the play, bringing a deeper meaning to not only his short life but hers as well. So, in the end, it's not just her story but his too.
Tragic Magic is ultimately a powerful story of hope, redemption and triumph.

REVIEWS
Carmen Burbridge, "All About Solo, NY"
Tragic Magic ~A Story of Recovery is the autobiographical tale of Sigute Miller's journey through addiction and the transformation of sobriety. The story combines Miller's Lithuanian background with poems and tales by her late brother to create a divine viewing experience...the wisdom and spiritual insights within the vulnerable storytelling left an impact.
It is a beautiful tribute to the writer, the performer's brother, and her personal strength. Inspiring and heartfelt, this show is impactful for audiences with addiction experience and without.
Samantha Simmonds-Ronceros, "Noho Arts District"
“Through a deeply personal performance, ‘Tragic Magic’ has so many sweetly human and very funny moments. It is told lightly, authentically and with a kind of gentle grace. Sigute’s complete authenticity, her willingness to share her feelings of ‘shame’, her struggle to forgive herself, creates a kind of golden light on stage. A safe place for us as well as for her.”
James Gilles, "Hollywood Times"
"It is brave of actress Sigute Miller to bare her soul and her difficult story on stage... a deeply personal performance. This is a tale of recovery and transformation. - James Gilles "Hollywood Times"
Shari Barrett, "Broadway World"
"Alcoholism is a deadly killer, and by the end of the play I was certainly inspired by how dedicated Sigute has become to her sobriety and sharing her journey with others to inspire them to do the same."
Alan Ehrlich, Producer & Writer
"Sigute Miller weaves a rich, colorful quilt comprised of sometimes disparate, difficult elements she magically brings together through the “tragic magic” of her life."
