I just got home from the dress rehearsal of Laugh Whore and Oh. My. God. Fantastic show! My sides still ache from laughing so hard. Definitely not a show for the easily offended (not something I'd take my grandmother to), but it's a 2hr 15min scream fest. Mario pokes fun at himself, celebrities and the audience with a plethora of voices, sound effects and specially written musical numbers. I have not seen something this funny in a long, long time.
Ladies, definitely wear your waterproof mascara because by the end of Act 1 I'd been laughing so hard that I'd cried all of mine off!

Posted: 10/11/04 at 11:51pmI would love to see this show. Some people hate him but I think he is a laugh riot. He says what all of us think sometimes. kind-a like a gay Margaret Cho (oh wait a minute... isn't she a gay man anyway?)

First of all, understudies are not allowed to ban legends from doing anything.... especially not me
Yes, Mario does Liza..... in a very, interesting fashion lmao
Like I said, previews start tonight and it's only running through November... definitely see it soon because this is something you'll want to see more than once. With the great amount of adlibbing, this is a show that will never be exactly the same twice!

this shilling is disgusting and must be stopped.
and you can help...by catching BKLYN, the bestest new Tony winning musical. It's got sets. It's got lights. It's got people in costumes! I've seen it every night for the last two weeks! Get you're tickets but they're sold out!

I'm not Mario's publicist
There is nothing pertaining to his SATC co-stars.

Posted: 10/12/04 at 4:59pmNo. It's definitely geared towards an adult audience.

Posted: 10/12/04 at 5:19pmDid anyone see him in THE CRUMPLE ZONE? He was amazing, as was the play. Who wrote that, and when is he going to write something else???

Posted: 10/12/04 at 5:52pmI looooove Mario Cantone!! Wish I could see it! And no, this is not shilling, this is a personal review from a person who saw something she liked and wanted to tell people about it. Shills are usually so carried away with hyperbole that they become screechy. Glad you liked the show.
