“Hey, Legal … quick question.”
– How much can the company pay an employee to get her girlfriend’s name tattooed on her neck?*
– What are the laws around having a snake sleep in an actor’s bed?*
– Is poop performance art legal?*
Legal Madness is currently collecting one-sentence “quick questions.” You know the kind. One casual sentence from a colleague or client, which is surprising, maddening, or leads an attorney down a winding path that likely includes a deep philosophical inquiry into certain life choices.

What is Legal Madness? Last year, NYU Law School’s Engelberg Center and Sarah Feingold gathered anonymous stories of in-house counsel, turned the tales into scripts, and hired actors to perform the monologues on stage. The first Legal Madness was a sold-out theatrical event that took place in New York City.
* Yes, these are actual questions inspired by a previous Legal Madness submission (and no need to provide answers to the questions).
Sarah was the General Counsel / first Lawyer at Etsy and Vroom. She’s a co-founder of The Fourth Floor, a creator and producer of Legal Madness, an NYU Law School Engelberg Center fellow, a board member, an investor, and a speaker. You can also find Sarah hammering silver, eating candy, and chasing her child. sarahfeingold.com.
