Photo Flash: Judy Gold Stars in THE JUDY SHOW!

The Judy Show - My Life As A Sitcom, (www.JudyGold.com) a new comedy written by and starring Judy Gold, will play The DR2 Theater, (103 E 15th Street) beginning June 30th with the official opening scheduled for tonight, July 6th. Check out Judy Gold in action below!

Building on the success of her show 25 Questions for a Jewish Mother, funny-woman Judy Gold returns to the stage in this hilarious look at her life through the lens of the classic sitcoms of her youth. With multimedia, original music, laughter, and love, Judy shows us how she balances family and ambition with a little help from our favorite TV shows of the Seventies, Eighties, and Nineties.

The Judy Show features original music by Judy Gold and lyrics by Judy Gold and Kate Moira Ryan (25 Questions for a Jewish Mother). Additional Material by Eric Kornfeld and Bob Smith.

The Judy Show is produced in association with Jamie Cesa, Lynn Shaw, Tom Smedes, Bruce Robert Harris and Jack W. Batman.

Directed by Amanda Charlton (Caroline in Jersey, Dissonance), It's Judy's Show will have scenic and projection design by Andrew Boyce (The People In The Picture, Twelfth Night), and lighting design by Marcus Doshi (Hamlet, The First Breeze of Summer).

"The Judy Show would be the name of my TV show if I had one, but I don't. Why? Maybe it's because I'm a 6'3" inch lesbian comedian raising my 2 sons in a 900 square foot apartment with one bathroom on the upper west side," said Judy Gold. "I can tell you it's definitely not for my lack of trying. My desire for my own sitcom began as a little girl - I spent hours lying on my belly on the shag carpeting getting lost in the world of the 70's sitcom. All I wanted to do was run away to the Brady house, The Partridge Family bus, even the project on "Good Times" seemed better than Clark, NJ. Maybe it was because "Good Times" was a spin-off of "Maude" which was a spin-off of "All In The Family" - which were all spin-offs of Norman Lear's brain. Whatever it was I thought it was DY-NO-MITE!"
