Weekend Preview: Norma Doesmen

Norma Doesmen

Are you ready for your close up? Norma Doesmen certainly is!!! This theatrical masterpiece pays homage to Broadway and silent films with a campy and satirical edge. Set in a less-than-starlit bungalow on Sunset Boulevard, Norma tells the story of “Joe Dillis”, a down-on-his-luck writer who finds himself drawn to a notoriously sex-crazed and mildly psychotic silent movie star, “Norma Doesmen.” With a little help from her schizophrenic man-servant, “Max,” “Norma” seduces and manipulates “Joe” in an attempt to make her big comeback to the silver screen. The production is filled with big laughs, witty one-liners, and outrageous plot twists that will have you jeering and cheering for “Norma” to make it back into the spotlight. You’ve got three chances this weekend to catch Norma Doesmen before the show flies away to another city, so get your tickets today!
