By the Way, Meet Vera Stark: Sly Satire Skewers Hollywood Racism
- Full Price:
- $43.00 - $55.00
- Our Price:
- $21.50 - $27.50
Set in Hollywood over a 70-year period, Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage's pseudo-biographical comedy By the Way, Meet Vera Stark follows the life of a headstrong African-American actress who begins a career in the 1930s, at a time when her only shot at success lay in stealing small scenes in big Hollywood blockbusters. Seventy years later, film buffs reflect on the life and legacy of the controversial star, whose eventual fame and fortune came at the price of perpetuating dangerous stereotypes. Nottage artfully blends comedy and social commentary for a thoroughly entertaining yet thought-provoking picture of the cultural climate that shaped Vera Stark. Clever and illuminating, this show draws on screwball films of the 1930s and uses today's fascination with celebrity and controversy to get to the truth behind the legend, and reflect on who she might have been if she'd lived in a different time.

Written on Aug 15 2011Although the seating could have been much better, the play itself was hysterical. As you can tell from the title, it is not for the conservative, but I very much enjoyed this show.

Written on Aug 09 2011My 18-year-old son and I had a blast at this clever new musical.

Written on Aug 08 2011This was a very fun show! It is meant for the liberal open-minded types; if you don't like rock music, swearing, or sexual freedom, then you won't have a good time. The songs are fun, the cast is full of energy, and the entire audience had a great time! It was sold out the night I went, so get your tickets now before you miss out on the fun!

Written on Aug 08 2011Had a great time. Voices were terrific, music kitschy and charming. A little lengthy, with no intermission and balancing issues with the sound. (Voices were often overpowered by the band.) Overall, a fun way to spend the afternoon. Look for main actor playing Christian to go places--he was on point.
