Theater

When mounting a stage parody of TV’s “The Golden Girls,” it takes really big shoes to fill the roles originated by iconic stars Beatrice Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty. And those shoes need to be even bigger when the four female leads are portrayed by men, says actor Vince Kelley, who steps into McClanahan’s part of Blanche in “Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue” Tuesday, Sept. 3 to Sunday, Sept. 29 at Broward Center’s Amaturo Theater.

Island City Stage founding artistic director Andy Rogow always wanted to do a play by the legendary Charles Busch. The New York-based playwright, who crafted an inimitable style of theatrical drag, stars in plays that he writes for himself portraying over-the-top female divas who appear to be trapped in time in the golden age of Hollywood. 

This play has everything going for it to make it a success in the South Florida theater market, it’s about Jews and gays, and features a well-built man walking around in a jock strap.
