Merkel


May 23 2008 - Jun 15 2008

Another world and Texas Premier at the Strand Theatre featuring another great play written by Texans. It's about a little town in Texas called Merkel. . . It's a 2 woman musical with lots of people. . . some are psychic; some are nuts; all are hilarious!! You don't have to be from Texas to enjoy it.

"........ brilliant and funny, the music is witty and beautiful, and the story and characters are completely charming and engaging! I was enthralled! You are going to love this show! What is most exciting to me is that Patti and Julia came up with all of the music and characters and the story-line... It's just all so well-done and professional. I was holding back tears at a few points and laughing out loud constantly. The scenes where they use video are HILARIOUS! It's done newscast style, so don't miss the crawler at the bottom of the video. But what is staying with me is the music - it's brilliant and funny and poignant. You'll love it. "
