The Facts of Life: The Lost Episode
by Julia Ward, posted Mar 14th 2007 11:07AM
All those girls living in one house for so long. You knew they were up to nothing good. In Jamie Morris' stage version of The Facts of Life: The Lost Episode, Eastland is short on funds and looking to axe Mrs. Garrett. Natalie, Tootie, Jo and Blair will do anything to raise enough money to keep her on staff. Anything.This campy stage production, making its New York City debut later this Spring, features five drag performers enacting Facts' fictional lost episode "The Best Little Whorehouse in Peekskill." If you're visiting New York this Spring, skip Broadway and head downtown. It's just a hunch, but I'm betting you won't see Eastland the same way again. (Not that you thought Natalie or Jo were 100% straight anyway.)

Blue Man Group to appear on Scrubs
by Julia Ward, posted Nov 15th 2006 9:36AM
Off-Broadway theater's accidental punchline The Blue Man Group will be making an appearance on this season's premiere of Scrubs. The blue-skinned, percussion-inclined trio will be joined on stage by Zach Braff's character J.D. at The Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino. This is, of course, not the Blue Man's first television appearance. In addition to numerous ads and talk show appearances, the group was part of an on-going Arrested Development gag, which involved David Cross' Tobias as the group's perpetual understudy. I've got my fingers-crossed for an Arrested Development-Scrubs crossover episode. Zach Braff appeared on the beloved, canceled Fox sitcom and hinted in interviews of Tobias, a licensed therapist, making a possible stop at Sacred Heart Hospital. It's probably just wishful thinking, but a comedy fan can dream.
The Scrubs season premiere is set for Thursday, November 30th at 9PM.
