THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND Comes to Empire Stage this Summer
By: BWW News Desk May. 15, 2017
A hilarious new musical parody of the classic 1980's Television sitcom, The Golden Girls, written and directed by Nick Brennan.Straight from your TV set comes a live stage show that follows your favorite over the hill funny women from Miami: Blanchet, Dorothea, Roz, and Sophie as they prepare for the annual Shady Oaks Retirement Home Talent Show. When Special Guest Star Ricky Martin moves in next door and enters the talent show himself, the competition turns into an all out battle for first prize. The only way the Golden Girls have a chance is to pull out all their talent stops and beat Ricky at his own showbiz game!
