A GREY GARDENS CHRISTMAS: A LOVING PARODY Extends Into January at Cre8tive NYC Studios

The unparalleled success of "A Grey Gardens Christmas: A Loving Tribute Musical Parody" has led Pop and Pop Productions to joyfully announce an extended run, after selling out the first performance in less than 2 hours. This unique and respectful tribute to the Beales, conceived by the creators of "The 'Original' Golden Girls LIVE: On Stage!", is now slated to continue captivating New York audiences every Friday at 8 PM through January.

Peter Mac and Dr. John Mac, partners in life and in art, have masterfully brought to the stage an empathetic and nuanced interpretation of Edith "Big Edie" Bouvier Beale and her daughter, Edith "Little Edie" Beale. Their portrayal transcends mere performance, offering a delicate balance of homage, humor, and heartfelt emotion. In the words of Peter, "Imitation should be the sincerest form of flattery, not battery." This guiding principle is evident in every aspect of the production, ensuring an experience that honors the memory and spirit of the Beales.
