by Drew Eberhard
- Feb 11, 2019
A Blank stage is set to adorn a combination of a house on one side and what will soon become the work stations of the women in this production. On the projection behind the set were words written to strike a chord with incoming audience members, "If one woman were to tell the truth about her life, the world would split open." These wise words from Muriel Rukyster were the only thing standing between the audience and the works to be portrayed on the stage this night. In the program, Founder and Director Fran Powers wrote, "Directing These Shining Lives has been a project of the heart. "It is vitally important to keep honoring courageous women who sacrificed so much for others." This is the foundation of the Powerstories Theatre mission."With that the scene is set and a whirlwind 90 minutes set to no intermission was about to unfold in front of us.
World Premiere Tour of MEAN GAYS Comes to The Montalbon Theatre in Hollywood
by A.A. Cristi
- Feb 6, 2019
After the smash success of her Troop Beverly Heels premiere tour with Trixie Mattel in 2018, drag icon Peaches Christ is starting off 2019 by paying tribute to one of the most fan-requested movies in the history of Peaches Christ Productions. Here comes the world premiere tour of Mean Gays!
It's survival of the fiercest when Kimmy Chi (RuPaul's Drag Race Season 8 finalist Kim Chi), a home-schooled transfer student from South Korea, moves to an American high school ruled by drag queen girl-gang The Plastics, led by the terrifying Willam George (RuPaul's Drag Race Season 4 firebrand Willam, currently stealing scenes opposite Lady Gaga in Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born), and her ignorant band of loyal followers, Peaches Swallows Wieners (Peaches Christ) and stoner dingbat Laganja Smith (RuPaul's Drag Race Season 6 standout Laganja Estranja, also seen in the Netflix series Dancing Queen). Will Kimmy fit in with these mean gays, or will they throw her under the school bus? Mean Gays is a hilariously irreverent live musical parody of the 2004 cult classic film Mean Girls starring Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey, and Rachel McAdams.
Audience members are encouraged to pretend it's Wednesday and deck themselves out in their pinkest attire! Care for some alcohol? If you're going to drink, please do it at the Cool Mom cocktail bar in the lobby.
Reserved seating for Mean Gays starts at $35. VIP packages are available which include a post-show meet and greet with the cast, a signed poster, two complimentary cocktails, and other surprises. Tickets are available online at https://www.themontalban.com/shows or via phone by calling (323) 461-6999, or in person at The Montalb n box office at 1615 North Vine Street in Hollywood, Monday through Friday, 1pm 6pm.
