ABOUT THE SHOW
Gather your besties, the wind beneath your wings, reconnect with old and new friends, and head on over to Theatre off Jackson for a comedy celebration with two of the Emerald City’s funniest femmes. The Stay Up Late Show is thrilled to produce in association with Theatre off Jackson- FRIED GREEN BEACHES: A Comedy about a Couple of Gal Pals.
Get ready to be transported through time and tide as comedy duo Rebecca M Davis and Tootsie Spangles skewer and pay homage to the movies and media of the past that left a lasting impression (A League of their Own, Beaches, David Bowie’s Pants in Labyrinth). This hysterically nostalgic, 80 minute pop culture spectacle features sketches, songs, and stories about womanhood, friendship, queerness, and growing up. Ages 18+
