BWW Reviews: TUTS' THE BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS At TUTS

Houston's Theatre Under the Stars' production of the two time Tony award winning musical The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas reminds Houston audiences why it has always been said that the stars shine big and bright, deep in the heart of Texas. This production, full of big hair, is filled with even bigger show-stopping numbers and larger than life characters.

Michelle DeJean, starring as Miss Mona in the upcoming and anticipated production of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas took time out of her busy rehearsal schedule to chat with me about life, theatre, touring, New York, Roxie and Miss Mona. As sincere and charming as she is, there is no doubt that the stars about to shine big and bright deep in the heart of Texas!

Edna Milton Chadwell, the last living madam of the Chicken Ranch brothel that inspired the Broadway musical The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas died on February 25, DailyMail reports. She was in the hospital at the time after a car accident put her there in October.
