DIXIE'S TUPPERWARE PARTY Hits The Road, Kicks Off National Tour 9/30 In Cleveland

Dixie's Tupperware Party, the hilarious Off-Broadway show starring Dixie Longate (2008 Drama Desk Nomination) - will launch its second year of nation touring with a 20-city schedule beginning September 30th at Cleveland's 14th Street Theatre. Produced by Down South LLC and written by Kris Andersson, the show which brought Tupperware-mania to Off Broadway and prompted NBC's Today Show to proclaim "Not Your Grandmother's Tupperware Party!" wowed critics across the country last year and promises to do the same this season with several repeat city engagements due to strong critical response and sold-out runs. "Dixie is warm, sassy, and naughty" and "a floozy with a heart of gold!" are just a sampling of her personal accolades.

Directed by Patrick Richwood, Dixie's Tupperware Party stars Dixie Longate, as the fast-talking Tupperware Lady, who has packed up her catalogues, and left her children in an Alabama trailer park to journey across America. Critics and audiences have howled with laughter as Dixie throws an actual onstageTupperware Party filled with outrageously funny tales, heartfelt accounts, FREE giveaways, audience participation and the most fabulous assortment of Tupperware ever sold on a theater stage. Loaded with the most up-to-date products available for purchase, see for yourself how Ms. Longate became the #1 Tupperware seller in the U.S. & Canada as she educates her guests on the many alternative uses she has discovered for her plastic products!

Dixie's Tupperware Party features costumes designed by Miss Longate, lighting designed by Richard Winkler and sound designed by Kit Bond.
