Coppell Arts Center will present hilarious puppet parody "That Golden Girls Show!" in Coppell for two performances only on Friday, April 15 and Saturday, April 16 at 8 PM.

The Farewell Tour is your last chance to see this iconic show before it returns to the Off-Broadway stage in New York City! The two performances will take place in the Main Hall at the new Coppell Arts Center (505 Travis Street, Coppell, TX 75019).

'That Golden Girls Show!' is a brand-new show that parodies classic Golden Girls moments - with puppets! Get set for an evening of cheesecake, laughter, jazzercise, shoulder pads, sex, and the elegant art of the quick-witted put down. From Sophia's get-rich-quick schemes, to Rose's tales from St Olaf, Blanche's insatiable hunt for men and the Fountain of Youth, and Dorothy's daily struggle to make sense of her life. Devoted fans will fondly remember our four girls from Miami, and for the first-timers, this will be a joyful introduction to the brilliance of that television series.

The cast includes Erin Ulman as Blanche, Ashely Brooke as Sophia, Luke Dombroski as Dorothy, and Colleen Welsh as Rose.
