Only Three More Shows Left, Dahlings!

Dahlings -

Yet another lovely write-up, this time on the New York Theatre Corps blog!

http://newtheatercorps.blogspot.com/2008/03/frigid-08-diary-of-mad-fashionista.html

The reviewer calls it, among other things, "engaging," praises my performance, and says that my co-star, Shannon Sutherland, not only "shines" but has the best bio line in New York!

There are only THREE performances left, so hurry up and purchase your tickets! We have had a wonderful response from our audiences, and I guarantee you a very good time.

Rival-blasting, servant-bashing, she will stop at nothing for the perfect Dior!

Policing The Oscar Fashion Police...

DAHLINGS –

Yesterday, while taking a well-deserved rest between performances of my show, I watched “Oscar Fashion Police” on some basic cable channel…I believe it was E!.

All I can say is, mon dieu! Who ARE these people? A parade of stumpy little men with strange haircuts, some woman named Debbie Matenopoulous, and the fabulous Kimora. They were calling the stars’ clothes “disgusting”, “a disgrace,” “ridiculous.”

Now, as you all know, I am all for freedom of speech, particularly when it comes to slagging celebrities. But this is simply too much, particularly coming from the stumpy little men. Debbie Maten-what’s-her-name was wearing a blinding pink parody of a bridesmaid’s dress, with an enormous bow that dwarfed her tiny little face and badly dyed hair. Kimora looked considerably more glamorous than she did at the Academy Awards, thank goodness.

During the Oscars, Kimora bore an unnerving resemblance to Imelda Marcos. I have been unable to find a picture; perhaps it has been suppressed.

Not that I didn’t agree with some of their choices. Although Johnny Depp didn’t look that bad. (His wife was another story.) But to be so brutal…no wonder celebrities look so dull on the red carpet. The tiniest misstep is called “ghastly”. One little man had bleached white hair standing straight up—who on earth is he to call anyone on the (red) carpet for fashion missteps?

Your faithful correspondent needed to get that off her creamy chest. I have a performance tonight, so I must go lie down. Bucky has been sulking because he is not allowed to play himself onstage. However, it is a non-Equity production, and he’s a member, so he would have had to play under a false name. And it’s hard enough to make him obey under his own.

The Show Gets A Rave on Glamour.Com!

DAHLINGS –

What can I say? Glorious things keep on happening. The latest is that I am appearing in all my glory on Glamour magazine’s website, Glamour.com! The adorable editor, Kirk, came to opening night and gives the show two big thumbs up!
Here is the Glamour link:

Not only that, the New York Times article was mentioned by the beauteous Erin on her blog, A Dress A Day!

Once again, I’d like to remind my ardent readers that the show only runs through March 8, and you can find all of the pertinent information and buy tickets by clicking on the pink logo on the right!
