Celebrity Autobiography: In Their Own Words at The Triad is non stop laughter
Oscar E Moore from the rear mezzanine for Talk Entertainment.com
We all know how difficult it is being a celebrity. So much pressure. So hard keeping your egos in check. Wanting your privacy but wanting to be talked about endlessly. And when it really gets out of hand you get to write your own version of your life as you want it to be viewed. And so you write your tell all “autobiography”. Selling your life between the covers of a hardback. But celebrities beware! Be careful what you put in print. It may come back to haunt you if CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY chooses to read your own words aloud with a totally new perspective which can be hysterically funny when you wanted to be all so serious.
So Tori Spelling and Julie Andrews you could be next! Your new autobios may be fare game for the variety of comic actors appearing in rotation Monday nights March 17th and 24th at 7:30 pm at The Triad. This past Monday we were treated to the skewered lives of Vanna White, Ivana Trump, Neil Sedaka, David Cassidy, Joan London, Mr. T, Loni Anderson, Burt Reynolds, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Mike Todd, Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds. The last five, appearing together, reading their individual riotous remembrances of marriages past.
Even without imbibing the two drink minimum you’ll be laughing hard at the visual antics that the performers give to the words of the celebrities being roasted – in their own words. Highest scores on my laugh meter were Kristen Johnston, Matthew Broderick, Richard Kind, Rick Holmes, Eugene Pack and the amazing Rachael Dratch. Hopefully she’s one of the “regulars”.
Sherri Shephard in portraying La Liz needed to be a bit more loose. I love Sherri on The View – she is extremely amusing and was just beginning to come into her own at about Liz’s fifth marriage. You go for it girl and you’ll have us rolling in the aisles.
Future guest stars announced: Alan Cumming, Jackie Hoffman, Cheyenne Jackson, Carson Kressley and the joyous Joy Behar. Can’t wait to see which bios they’ll pick, or should I say pick on.
CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHIES is ninety minutes of unadulterated non-stop laughter. Tickets $35.00. At The Triad 158 West 72 Street. Once inside, cash only.
