We are the bow tied around your brightly wrapped present, the gleaming star atop your tannenbaum, the high note in your Jingle Bell Rock, and the surprise at the very bottom of your stocking. We are MAMA D'S Christmas Stocking, a celebration of all things sexy and bawdy in an evening of music, dance and comedy. Shows begin December 9 and run on selected dates to December 30.
Mama D is back and outrageous as ever, and this time she's planning a show with a holiday twist. Come in from the cold as we heat things up at The Playhouse and celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with MAMA D'S Christmas Stocking!
Director and Choreographer Darlene Zoller is the co-founder of Playhouse on Park where she has directed and choreographed CHICAGO (Best Director of a Musical/Broadway World) SWINGING ON A STAR, THAT HOLIDAY FEELING and A Chorus Line. Other choreography credits include: PASSING STRANGE, CABARET, HAIR, FRECKLEFACE STRAWBERRY, A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD among others. Zoller was voted Best Director of a Musical/Broadway World for I'D RATHER BE DANCING. She IS Mama D of MAMA D's OUTRAGEOUS ROMP; a grown ups only music, dance and comedy event exclusive to The Playhouse. Darlene is an adjunct professor at the University of Hartford's Hartt School where she directed and choreographed CHICAGO and did the choreography for ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY, THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE, SMILE and the upcoming CURTAINS.
So what can audience members expect? Some things nice, but mostly naughty! You'll experience a night filled with laughter as the crew of sultry performers give the gift of laughter, entertainment and merriment. It'll be nuttier than your weird Aunt Sophie's fruitcake! And feel free to bring some spiked eggnog as this event is BYOB. MAMA D WARNS: this show is not for everyone. We're rude, we're crude and we're partially nude!
Performances run December 9, 10, 16 and 17 at 8pm, December 28 and 29 at 7:30pm, and December 30 at 8pm. Tickets are $25 each, all seats reserved.
A special New Year's Eve show has been planned with dancing, hearty finger foods, and more debauchery to ring in the New Year! After the clock strikes 12, dessert and champagne will be served. All tickets for this event will be priced at $60, all seats reserved.
