“We are excited to bring something to the Sunriver Stars community that has never been done before,” said Director Ginger Emrick. “The audience will be transported back in time to join us in our TV studio set for an interactive live filming. Plus, get your Golden Girls garb ready for our Saturday night Costume Contest – dress as your favorite Golden Girl. Each character winner will receive a prize and one lucky winner may even have a cameo on stage.”
In addition to the Saturday costume contest, each night there will be a photo booth and cheesecake raffle as well as Golden Girl-themed food and beverages such as Long Island iced tea, cheesecake and Italian dishes. Refreshments will be available for purchase one hour before show time as well as during intermission.
The cast will be portraying the characters as well as the real-life actors, with between scenes banter, backstage antics and crew sharing the spotlight. Audience members will even have the opportunity to interact with a preshow comedian as well as applause signs. Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for children 12 and younger.
