My Big Fat Blonde Musical

A great, fun, irreverent piece of theatre that makes you feel better about life as you exit the theatre. What a gift! I would highly recommend this one! ... full review

What a joy it was to see this show. With so many solo-shows and musicals at Fringe, I am always excited to see a show that is both. What blew me away, however, was that this was better than any of both categories I had seen in a very long time. Theresa and Bobby have put together a show that incorporates all the elements of a great musical, the hilarity of a one-woman comedy, and the drama of a heartfelt story. You find yourself singing along as you would any great Webber or Sondheim musical from the very first song. You ultimately find yourself crying and laughing at moments where Theresa reminds you that we all have struggles and we all have the strength to overcome them. With the incredible direction of Johnson and the lovely choreo... full review

Beautifully-crafted and professional. Not a single misstep! It's a lovely, extremely funny show about surviving in Hollywood as a "Plus Size" actress, but it never devolves into self-indulgence or "pity-me" mode. Theresa empowers with her amazing personality, talent and charm. Theresa and Bobby McGlynn have written a very clever show that's hilarious, moving and deep. They are very promising song lyricists too and I feel this show must go on to New York. There's never a dull moment. An hour of pure delight with the charismatic, energetic, supremely talented Terri Stroll. The audience leapt to its collective feet and applauded this formidable performance feat for a long time. Much deserved. Top of the Fringe. ... full review

Watch out Hollywood, “triple threat” Terri (Theresa Stroll) has her own successful musical just bursting with Heart! Actually she’s more than a triple threat; Ms Stroll and Bobby McGlynn are the co-writing, composing, producing duo behind the ebullient My Big Fat Blonde Musical. Beautifully directed by Jessica Lynn Johnson, it's a solo show that feels bigger than a solo show. There were other characters on stage with her, weren't there...? I can picture them there... Oh no, those were all all Theresa! The story, the music and Theresa’s wonderful acting and singing performance played on my heart, took me from laughter to outrage and back to laughter again! A couple of days later, the theme song was playing in my head! A sparkling, a... full review

This show is a well thought out, well written, beautifully composed and perfectly choreographed piece of theatre that really discussed some legitimate issue regarding body shaming in Los Angeles. I heard it was award worthy from the PREVIEWS and I saw the penultimate show so I can only imagine how it's grown and I am fully on the "This is an Award Worthy Show" train. WOO! WOO! ... full review
