7/21/2010 - Girls Night is definitely one for the ladies! Review
But the less-than-traditional audience that filled the theater was merely a reflection of the show on stage. As the name suggests, "Girls Night" is definitely one for the ladies, although there were a handful of brave men in the crowd on opening night. ("Suckers!" the welcoming voice-over playfully taunted.) On the surface "Girls Night" appears to be a glorified bachelorette party onstage, but at its core, the show is a relatively rousing two-hour celebration of girl power.

7/12/2010 - Summer Gets Hotter at Geva! News and Press Releases
As we are currently experiencing a heatwave in Rochester, I thought it only apropos to talk about the heatwave happening in our Mainstage, namely Girls Night the Musical. Think of it as “Sex in the City” meets “Desperate Housewives” with a little Mamma Mia thrown in for good measure.

4/28/2010 - "Girls" is a Bunch of Fun Review
From The Philadelphia Inquirer, By Toby Zinman: The "girls" who came to see Girls Night were every age, shape, size, race, and color. There were even a few guys. A group of 11 high school teachers was sitting next to me. Everybody seemed to have the same good time. The show's unpretentious fun and the talented, unembarrassable women on stage had all of the audience on their feet, clapping, singing, and dancing in the aisles.

When the whole audience joins in to chant "I Will Survive," you realize that "Girls Night: The Musical" is not just a silly bachelorette-flavored night on the town. It's a rally. It involves the audience deeply and sincerely in a way that the current Broadway production of "Hair," in its earnestness, can only envy.
9/22/2008 - Get Ready for a Fun "Girls Night" Out Review

10/31/2007 - Paramount musical celebrates female friendships News and Press Releases
There's nothing quite so entertaining as watching girls who just want to have fun. They can be catty and cynical, silly or serious, weepy or wistful. And they've evene been known to get a bit raunchy every now and then - usually after midnight and only with the most innocent of intentions.
10/25/2007 - Sister rules, with sharp humor and nostalgia Review
"Late Nite Catechism" at the Olney Theatre Center for the Arts through Nov. 11, takes a hilarious and nostalgic look at parochial school education 40-some years ago, and incorporates many of the changes in the church since then, but it is never unkind or cynical about either the old or the new ways.

Out Front
By David Marlowe
Besides being a very fun romp through the Yiddish lexicon, playwright, Joel Paley has given loving tribute to his memories of some vibrantly expressive Jewish forebears. In a brief conversation during the opening night festivities, the playwright said that his grandmother was the quintessential Borscht Belt Betty of that era. The cast is exuberant in their enthusiastic telling of the tale of a third rate Gentile director named
It is to be noted that the outrageous costumes for the final scene smack of “La Cage aux Folles” and other campy gay musicals like “When Pigs Fly.”
The dialogue leans very heavily on vaudeville with jokes and one-liners that require a drum roll and ba dum bum! An example would be: “He’s not a Jew.” “Gezundheit!” or “Five Q plus five Q equals ten Q.” “You’re welcome.” So for an evening of musical fun that harks back to Vaudeville go see “The Yiddish are Coming, The Yiddish Are Coming!
