The performance is at Theatre Row on April 6th.
Big Hair: A Rad and Wild Love Affair will return to NYC next month! See the lives of two of the most dynamite comedians to have ever graced the silver screen in a romantic spectacle illustrated by some of their most iconic and memorable characters. Their impact on the lives of audiences, both young and old, is undeniable, even today. However, their names have tragically begun to fade into the confines of history.
Relive their dazzling and captivating love story in this one-woman theatrical, passionately written and hilariously performed by the immensely talented actress, singer, and songwriter, Maegan Mandarino. Ed. Fringe Review calls it “a vaudevillian type of performance that we rarely get to experience these days and that’s a shame because it’s so fun”, and it certainly is a riot of laughs and gags, but there is so much more to uncover in this captivating story. Big Hair shows, not just the facts, but the emotional gravity that these two brilliant comics brought to their performances. The audience’s connection to their immortal personas, both on and off the screen, is used to guide them through a profound narrative of romance, heartache, and most importantly, plenty of laughs.
In addition to being an accomplished playwright, Maegan Alexandria’s career has seen successes in stage acting, creative writing, and music production. Winner of the LIT Award for Comedic Writing in 2018, she toured across the country with a few comedy troupes dominating the stages of Chicago, New York, and even her hometown of Los Angeles. Author of the young adult series, The Canvas Carvers, she is also a member of the innovative and exciting rock band, Cheap Sentiment.
