Last night Rebeckah Gordon-Kirk (Birdy A Peep Show Named Desire ) gave a beautiful answer to someone's question about the Birdy characters' assessment of Blanche and her ups and downs.

She explains the Birdies, while omniscient to how Blanche's story will go, are powerless to change the actual fate of their main character.

Rebeckah doesn't see this as a reason to fret, though, for as long as Blanche has breath- she's got options, baby!
To quote the birdies (played by Gordon-Kirk and Scarlet Letta )
"While her fire keeps burning, she'll ALWAYS find a friend"

Backed by vocalist Jessica Mixon - this dynamo all-femme cast tells the tale "often misremembered" of Ms. Blanche Dubois for the last showing of this run of A Peep Show Named Desire

Vocalist Jessica Mixon sets the tone between physical acts, floating audience members between vignettes of hope, despair, and downright MOXY.

Comedy, tragedy, and everything in between!

Do not miss your last chance to see a final, truly theatrical production of A Peep Show Named Desire

Lefty Lucy guides the audience through an untold spin on the tale of the infamous Blanche Dubois. Supported by frothy vocalist Jessica Mixon and bodacious Birdy chorus Scarlett Letta and Rebeckah Gordon-Kirk, this Blanche survives, and perhaps even-THRIVES

The future Sir William imagined for his most beloved character, told through a dynamic Vaudeville variety act by an overwhelmingly diverse, femme cast and crew- this show fills in the blanks. Now, what will you do?

THE REVIEWS ARE IN ON ALL OF IT!:
"It’s a triumphant showcase of Lefty Lucy’s talents, from comedic to sensual, and lots in between. The staging is a satisfyingly accomplished evolution of what in her own words started out a couple of years ago as “a scrappy burlesque show”. It’s an empowering romp, a celebratory tweak of the nose of oppression, and one where in the end, Blanche wins - and in terms of sheer entertainment, so do we. "
-Up All Night: New Orleans
