🎃 Just in time for Halloween, handbagtheater offers us a campy sci-fi/horror show about Barbra Streisand cloning her dog. | Matt Simonette
From left: Brian Shaw, Nicky Mendelsohn, Tyler Anthony Smith, and Dakota Hughes in Hell in a Handbag'sDr. Barbra Joan Frankenstreisand —that ultimate hyphenate: superstar-mad scientist—has commandeered the stage at the Raven Room at Redline VR bar for what she calls a “clone-cert” to duplicate her beloved and very dead pooch.
Making occasional appearances are also Judy Garland , Oprah , and Barry Gibb —who ends the show looking as battered as Frankenstreisand’s dog—among others.
