MY GAY HUSBAND

This was a fun, campy, brisk and surprisingly bawdy (in a good way) TV parody romp by Kara Lee Burk that had the audience first tittering with amusement then belly-laughing at the preview. Fiona Gubelmann is delightful as a beautiful, blonde "Diane Wiest"-type married to light-in-his-loafers (but not to the point of irritating stereo-type) Beau, played with enthusiasm by handsome Matt Austin. But it's hoarse-voiced-but-pitch-perfect Margie (Jackie Tohn) and the Ralph Kramden-esque Dick ("of the week," the role is apparently played by a new actor each show, this time it was funny bear Kiff VandenHeuvel) that steal the show. Also on hand is a fun, droll announcer and a game cast of extras who, under clear and efficient direction by Carla Cac... full review

Great script. Awesome revolving cast. Ready for prime-time? I think so!... full review

My Gay Husband is refreshing and funny with lots of heart at its core. ... full review

This show really made me want to be in a marriage of convenience with a super sweet, constantly-baking husband. Or at least that this was a real tv show. The cast and writing really nail that innocent 1950s TV vibe (complete with a great reference to Bewitched's constantly-switching Darrens), but slightly twisted to a modern, gay-friendly, feminist, kinky sensibility...... full review

Show was Amazing!!!! Funny, silly, relatable! We went to see our friend Matt, "Beau" in the show, and we really enjoyed it. The Cast was so good! A definite must see!! ... full review

"My Gay Husband" is a conversation starter on so many different levels. Funny, sentimental, engaging, with just the right amount of oo-la-la and oh-no-she-didn't. Kara Lee and her band of performers take us all back to a golden age of television, when everyone smoked on TV, when the guys went bowling and the ladies had tupperware parties. We witness the resurrection of a pilot that tells a story, way ahead of its time. It's one of those shows you can watch a few times, because you may wonder "did he just say what I think he just said?" Hands down, a really funny show. Current and nostalgic at the same time. Major props to the team. I can't wait to see the second episode!... full review

Great concept with fantastic execution. The actors and writing are both hilarious, but what is most impressive about this show is the degree to which they make use of the staged environment to complement the sitcoms concept - from a different actor in the role of "Dick" each show, who must read his lines off cue cards to a host actually holding up an applause sign, and my favorite of all: the bedroom montage with upright cardboard beds. Bravo! Great fun, probably my favorite show I saw the the 2015 Fringe.... full review

i love a lot about this show, but I'm not gonna lie... I want to see the choreographed opening theme song number!!! you have such a big cast, and it's ripe with opportunities. two, I want you to turn up the gay on the set a notch! Love the beds, love the oven mitt, but I want more GAY! say even a tablecloth, perhaps? Some of the acting was top notch, I'm a total fan of the writing (the apron switch n' stuff... really smart), and I love the idea of a new dick for each show... but... Iet's not make dick ever struggle with the cue cards. Like a ball girl, get up there so he's got it. Plus, it's ripe with character opportunities, so have fun. All in all, a great job. with a little more color and flair... you're there.... full review

Since you're trafficking in Retro Stereotypes, why not just call it I LOVE BRUCE-IE, instead of saddling it with a dorky label like MY GAY HUSBAND? Like many shows at this year's fest, it's a High (CounterCulture) Concept, but for a $12 tab (less Button discount) I expected more than 35 minutes of mild mirth--- including curtain calls. Seems to have been written BY people who don't know the 1950s FOR people who don't know the period. Cast does OK, considering, but the real treat was the "surprise" appearance of the toweringly talented Clayton Shane Farris (in a contemporary part that may, or may not, have been improvised). The night before I saw him playing a title role in MAX AND ELSA, in the style of a 1930s Peter Sellers, and he was b... full review
