Fried Eggs - Tracy Burns is Back!
Carrie Lanyon, Staff


Don't miss it! Last year's GLASS SLIPPER, a one-woman show by Tracy Burns, was a Mendocino knockout. By popular community demand she's back with a brand new show. It's called FRIED EGGS, and it's about trying to have a baby while writing a show about trying to have a baby. Anyone who's seen Tracy perform up here over the last several decades knows she's a spectacular performer who can transform serious, soulful and quirky thinking into terrific solo theatre. It's a grown-up show with adult content and language. Performances run July 12 to July 29, Thursday through Sunday at 8 PM, with a 2 PM matineee on Sunday, July 29. The Friday, July 13 performance includes a Post-Show Gala. For more information and reservations call the Helen Schoeni Theatre at 707-937-4477.
