Stage and Cinema - Recommended

"...The production is whimsical and immersive. As audiences, we were transported into a drag club, especially in Act II opening, back to back memorable drag numbers performed by Jeff Sumner (Miss Tracy Mills/Bobby) and Taubert Nadalini (Casey/Georgia McBride) for their fierce and memorable performances."

"...A soon-to-be legendary Florida Panhandle drag queen lights up the stage in International City Theatre’s supremely entertaining production of Matthew Lopez’s 2016 off-Broadway comedy smash The Legend Of Georgia McBride."

On Stage Los Angeles - Highly Recommended

"...This is a must see, especially for heterosexuals. Misconceptions regarding gender and female impersonation are nicely addressed. To be gay and proud and certainly not apologetic, is part of the theme. "Georgia McBride" is a play with music with strong performances and some magical quick change effects. It has a fantastic stage crew, and is certainly a show for our times."

"...Which helps make this one of the best pieces of theatre I've seen all year! Strongly recommended not only to tickle your funny bone, but touch your heart, open your mind, and put a grin on your face.'

"...Can an Elvis Impersonator reinvent himself as a drag queen? More to the point-can an impoverished married straight man with a child on the way become a successful star drag act? This is the thin premise that playwright Matthew Lopez has used to create his hilariously outrageous ode to the art of drag The Legend of Georgia McBride at International City Theatre in Long Beach. Women grab your best gay friend; men clutch your pearls and enjoy the rip-roaring good time that director Jamie Torcellini has staged."
