GOLDEN GIRLS LIVE: ON STAGE! Returns To NYC For A 15th Anniversary Production

Fifteen years ago (2003) Golden Girls LIVE: On Stage! was created by real life couple Peter Mac and John Mac as a loving tribute in the style of Brady Bunch LIVE. The Macs created a loving drag parody of everyone's favorite sitcom, which played to sold out audiences at the now shuttered Rose's Turn in the West Village. The show uses spot on impersonations of the original Actresses as source material (they play Estelle Getty and Beatrice Arthur respectively) and creates original improv-parody situations to bring the girls back for the reunion fans never got.

"We realized after the original run in NYC in 2003 that there was an audience to relive and attend a live taping of this revered sitcom in other cities across the United States. Andrew Gold gave us permission to include the song he composed and used for the original sitcom's theme song. From the moment, the lights go down you hear every single audience member singing along, and you know the journey in time has begun to bring the girls back together live on stage!" ~ John Mac, Producer & Bea Arthur

The Macs have ?toured the country coast to coast (NYC to LA to Boston to Las Vegas now back to NYC) and to date over 1,350 performances. To celebrate their fifteenth Anniversary of creating Golden Girls LIVE: On Stage! they have decided to bring the show home to NYC for the first time in fifteen years. The 'Lost' Reunion Episode, written by Peter Mac, gives the fans what they have always wanted - the reunion they never got - and no Golden Palace does not count! So, come see what reunites these four amazing women, and be prepared to laugh and cry just like it was 1992.
