Written on Jul 23 2012This was a fun little farce. Very quirky, but the ladies did a nice job.
Written on Jul 20 2012Funny, things happening quickly, great acting, and some real surprises involving the audience! Don't miss it before it closes out this weekend!!
Written on Jul 18 2012Short play and funky venue, but a very funny script and a stellar cast. Had a great time.
Written on Jul 18 2012The show is very well-written and the performance is high energy and hilarious. I highly recommend this show!
Written on Jul 16 2012Took a friend as part of her retroactive birthday gift and we throughly enjoyed the frenzied and high-energy hijinks of the entire cast. Being a woman of "a certain age", I can remember the fear and subsequent misguided arrangements all of America was going through during the '50s to prepare for what we thought was going to be an inevidible nuclear attack on our country. Couple that with the hysteria of five women desperately trying to hide their lesbianism from not only society but also even from themselves, and you have the working premise of "5 Lesbians Eating a Quiche" in a nutshell!
Written on Jul 15 2012DO NOT GO TO THIS SHOW.
I had a ticket, spent my time and money on a cab to arrive at the theater and no one was there for the 10:00 pm Sat July 14th show. They had my email and phone number but did not bother to contact me. They did not even have the courtesy of putting a sign on the locked door of the Phoenix theater to tell people they weren't putting on the show.
Goldstar says their box office DID NOT tell them they cancelled the show. In fact, Goldstar sent me a reminder email the day before.
Unless you have time and money to waste, do not attend this event that is obviously managed by an amateurish organization.
Written on Jul 06 2012Fabulous. Fun. Flawless. Short. Definitely a highly charming piece. Go see it--you'll still have time to catch dinner afterward in this early-to-bed town.
