As is typical of Del Shores plays, SBS deals with real social and emotional issues, but does so in a way that makes us laugh at ourselves while nudging us to question our own prejudices in thinking and behavior.

In honor of our fifth season at The Ringwald, Who Wants Cake? will revive its first big hit, Southern Baptist Sissies, at Ferndale's Ringwald Theatre for an exclusive 3 week run beginning Friday, September 9th.

Who Wants Cake? is thrilled to announce its line-up of productions for the upcoming 2011-2012 season.

The idea of following the stories of four young gay men who are raised as members of a Baptist church in Texas is certainly fertile enough stuff for a play on its own. But, with SOUTHERN BAPTIST SISSIES, playwright Del Shores muddies this basic premise with a non-linear, and at times illogical, presentation that generates a modicum of laughs, but misses the mark dramatically. Although I'm usually a fan of unconventionality, I think Shores pushes too hard here, and the opportunity to create something truly memorable is lost in the process. However, Citilites Theatre has put together a fitfully funny and heartfelt production that makes the most of this decidedly uneven material, and it benefits greatly from a number of strong performances as well.
