Yesterday we rehearsed in The Chopin Theatre and I finally saw Matt Buettner’s great set for the show. It’s our own little Poseidon jungle gym. I really haven’t even had a chance to obsess about the fact that The Joans are opening for Cyndi Lauper tomorrow at Milwaukee Pridefest, which I suppose is for the best. I am just hoping the weather doesn’t get too freaky.

MOMMIE DEAREST ON MOTHERS DAY WITH HELL IN A HANDBAG!
CHICAGO, IL – The Music Box Theatre re-teams again with Dick O’Day and Hell in a Handbag Productions to present the second in their seasonal series focusing on the best (and worst) in camp movies – Camp Midnight. This time the trio invites you to spend Mother’s Day with Mommie Dearest. Mommie Dearest, the Mt. Everest of Mother’s Day movies will screen one time only, Sunday, May 10th. Camp Midnight fans are invited to “get up early” for this special matinee presentation that will include a Joan-a-Palooza day of activities kicking off with a 1:30pm pre-show hosted by Dick O’Day.
Get out your eyebrow pencil, shoulder pads and f*** me pumps to compete in the Joan Crawford look-a-like contest! Thrill to prize giveaways! Be amazed at a special performance by The Joans, the world’s first band dedicated to “giving Joan Crawford a rock-n-roll voice.”
Capture the moment for all eternity with a special photo taken with Joan and Christina. The 2:00pm screening (complete with interactive audience guide) immediately follows all this Mommie Dearest mayhem.
The Camp Midnight crew has also teamed up with Blue Bayou, Chicago’s terrific Sunday brunch destination to offer an exclusive upgrade for the event.
