by Alexander Cohen - Oct 3, 2026

Review: BOOTY CANDY at Buddies In Bad Times Theatre
by Keira Grant - Oct 2, 2026


Booty Candy is perfect for 2026. It has just the right blend of hilarity and  hyperbole to take your mind off current events and just enough home truths to give a voice to the shared pain, fear and rage of all of us whose very existence is subversive during these turbulent times. At a time when plays like Booty Candy are being censored in ostensibly democratic nations, seeing this show and laughing heartily is an act of resistance.
