Review by CHARLES ZIARKO

June 24, 2016 certified reviewer

What I liked

Attractive cast and eye-catching period bed and props.

What I didn't like

Longish, without being much of a play.

My overall impression

What World do these people inhabit—-not just the trio onstage, but those who concocted this sex-fueled farrago? Not one I know, although they’ve appropriated the persona of real-life long-ago gold-digger Peggy Hopkins Joyce (who may have inspired GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES)! Two hunky guys and a girl who will remind you of Melanie Griffith (before she ruined her looks) wander around on-stage in pseudo-period underwear for 69 minutes—an apt amount of time for A LOT of talk about sex and A LOT of simulated sex. The blunt title tells you what to expect: exhibitionism—-at advanced prices! Not exactly a play, but an hour’s entertainment for some people, with a lot of detailed factual period information you may not have known.
