By:

Downstairs Cabaret presents The Man Who Owned Broadway and GIRLS ONLY: The Secret Comedy of Women Oct. 9-Nov. 2.

Broadway's Jon Peterson returns to DCT's stage as "The Man Who Owned Broadway" in this upbeat, fast-moving play that captures the essence of George M. Cohan, his music, and a fabulous era of show business.
Cohan penned such classic American songs as "Give My Regards to Broadway," "Mary's a Grand Old Name," "You're A Grand Old Flag,"
"Yankee Doodle Boy," and more. New York Times proclaimed George M. Cohan Tonight!, "...endlessly euphoric!"

GIRLS ONLY: The Secret Comedy of Women
An original comedy that celebrates the honor, truth, humor, and silliness of being female.
With a two-woman cast and audiences full of raucous, laughing ladies, the show is a unique examination of all things girly.
Born out of the earnest and sweetly ridiculous writings the two authors discovered in their teenage diaries,
the Girls Only mix of sketch comedy, improvisation, audience participation, and hilarious songs and videos
will remind you that underneath, women all have very funny and very charming feminine similarities.
Performances take place at 3450 Winton Place, Brighton-Henrietta
