DIE HEART
Monday, December 12th, 2022
Troubadour Theater Company’s band of triple-threat zanies spoof the action movie genre in their own inimitable way in Die Heart, combining the Troubies’ trademark blend of unrepressed lunacy with the songs of ‘70s/’80s rock legends Ann and Nancy Wilson jukeboxed into their take on the movie that launched Bruce Willis’s career as everybody’s favorite cop-turned-antiterrorist.

LIZASTRATA
Sunday, September 12th, 2021
Start spreading the news. The Troubadour Theater Company is back, live and in person at the Getty Villa, mashing up the ancient Greek comedy Lysistrata with the Troubies’ trademark blend of zany jokes, inspired adlibs (impromptu or scripted, you be the judge), snappy dance moves, and “the music of Liza Minnelli” in the cleverly redubbed Lizastrata.

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO MOTOWN
Sunday, December 13th, 2015
The Troubadour Theater Company is back at the Falcon Theatre for their once-a-year Christmas fun fest, a reprise of the smash 2004 hit Santa Claus Is Coming To Motown, and though I only counted two actual Motown songs (plus a brief medley) amongst Santa’s dozen or more R&B/soul hits, the Troubies’ latest annual year-end offering remains a hilarious holiday treat.
