Dixie's Tupperware Party
...a blast and I wish it lasted twice as long.
...beyond Dixie's infinite (though decidedly perverse) charm, is the unexpectedly life-affirming, girl-empowering message of her show.
Such is her skill that she segues effortlessly from ribaldry to wrenching our hearts with her mini-history of the Tupperware party...
I think mine were tears of laughter, but I was also deeply moved. I tip my wig to her."

A performer's flair for high-energy comedy...
...although she may attempt to evoke the cake-baking sensibilities and homilies of a Jesus-praisin' Alabama housewife, her sharp tongue, questionable morals and fondness for vodka bring us back to reality faster than a used corn-plaster in a slice of cherry pie.""

She struts about the stage like Foghorn Leghorn in a gingham frock. * * * * "
