“I liked this goofy, energetic show. But it owes more to Evil Dead: The Musical than La Cage Aux Folles and would be more accurately, though admittedly less flashily, titled Fanboy Lesbian Scooby-Doo Bride of Frankenstein. And if that seems like fun to you, you're in for a treat.”
-David Vining, NYtheatre.com

Billy Butler and the Monster Makers return to Joe's Pub for another concert of their pop/rock musical hit, Gay Bride of Frankenstein. Hailed as the Rocky Horror for a new generation it has had regional success as well as a run at NYMF in 2009.

Chicago Reviews




"Taking on the lead role of Roxie is Maggie Politi. Delivering impeccable comedic timing, a capable voice, and a commanding stage presence, Maggie does great justice to this part.”
-Bookmans Entertainment Exchange
http://www.bookmans.com/content/ticket-tuesdays-chicago-review-and-giveaway

Co-starring with Jason Fleck in this delicious Broadway extravaganza, the brassy and unforgettable Maggie Politi...
This production is pure satire with the dynamic duo of Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly, played with zest and emotion by Maggie Politi and Amy Marie Mcleary
