THE NAKED HOLIDAYS OPENING
(This is from a collection of holiday themed one acts – I wrote the opening play. It went up at Sacred Fools in LA and at End Times in NYC in December, 2007.)
LA Weekly
“George Larkin’s ‘The Naked Holidays Opening,’ directed gleefully by Alexander Yannis Stephano, is the pick of the show. A multicultural melange outlining the contrasting traditions of Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa with a debunking of Christian traditions, climaxing in a semi-clothed chorus line.”
LA Times (from page one of the Calendar Section)
“Most of the clothes come off near the end of George Larkin’s frisky musical introduction, which also establishes that the holidays in question include Hanukkah, Kwanza and solstice celebrations, as well as Christmas. The show pokes fun of its own ethnic non-diversity by enlisting an unwilling white guy (Jeff Benninghofen) to explain Kwanza. Not all of the seven vignettes that follow are especially raw. Nothing else is as good.”
