THE SECRET COMEDY OF WOMEN brings its wildly popular and heartfelt celebration of womanhood to The Colony Theatre in Burbank from April 24 through May 18. With over a quarter million audience members across the country laughing along, this smart, funny, and deeply personal show is more than just a comedy. It is a love letter to the female experience.
Considering the recent challenges faced by so many in Southern California, the producers of THE SECRET COMEDY OF WOMEN are offering a free performance on Friday, April 25, at 8pm, for first responders and those affected by the January wildfires. The evening is intended as a gift of laughter, community, and healing.
“We know how powerful it is to laugh together, especially when life feels uncertain or heavy,” said Barbara Gehring, co-author and performer. “This show was born from our own stories, struggles, and joy as women, and we want to share that joy with everyone who needs it right now.”
“Sometimes the best thing we can do is open the doors, fill hearts, and lift spirits,” added Linda Klein, co-author and performer. “We don’t just want to perform — we want to connect with the community.”
The regular performance schedule for THE SECRET COMEDY OF WOMEN is Thursday and Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2:30pm and 8pm, and Sunday at 2:30pm and 7:30pm. There will be an additional performance on Thursday, May 1, at 2:30pm.
Admission prices range from $45–$68.50 and tickets may be purchased online at www.playhouseinfo.com or by phone at (855) 448-7469. For group sales information, call (888) 264-1788.
The Colony Theatre is located at 555 N. Third Street (between Cypress and Magnolia), in Burbank, 91502.
Free onsite parking is available.
THE SECRET COMEDY OF WOMEN uses sketch comedy, improvisation, music, dance and truth-telling to explore everything from boys and bras to pantyhose and menopause highlighting the universal humor of growing up female. It’s clever, nostalgic, and unforgettably real. Broadway World called it, “A two-woman, interactive masterpiece.” And the Denver Post called it, “… truly brilliant.”
Producer Philip Roger Roy echoes the spirit behind the free performance. “We believe laughter is essential, especially in hard times. This is our small way of saying ‘We see you, and you’re not alone.’ Whether you come to laugh, cry, or just breathe for a couple of hours, we welcome you.”
To take advantage of this offer, please contact groupsales@playhouseinfo.com or call (888) 264-1788 between 9am–6pm PDT no later than end of day on Friday, April 18.
