This Side of Crazy
Sept 20 - Oct 20, 2019
Written and Directed By Del Shores
World Premiere


“Little superstars for Jesus,” the Blaylock Sisters are all grown up and kind of a mess. There’s Rachel, a Christian vlogger who still has sex with her comatose husband; Abigail, a chain-smoking virgin with anger management issues; and Bethany, a closeted atheist stripper. When their overbearing stage mother Ditty “volunteers” her daughters for a star-studded reunion performance, all hell breaks loose. From the brilliant and hilarious mind of Del Shores (creator of Sordid Lives) comes a brand new comedy about fame, family, and finding your way back home.
Written and Directed by Del Shores
