Holiday Fun at The Boutique Theatre

“John Anderson Sings Hits from the 70s” takes The Boutique stage from December 27-29th at 6:00 pm.
Perro Bravo Productions returns to Puerto Vallarta on December 29 and 30th at 8:30 pm with the Spanish adapted version of Tomas Ustusastegui’s comedy “Princesas Desesperadas – The Christmas Special.” Directed by Ramiro Daniel, and with actors Juan Pablo Hernandez, Juan Carlos Ramirez, Cesar Trujillo, and Cesar Bravo, Princesas Desesperadas is a fast-paced comedy that tells the story of four Disney princesses who get together 15 years after their “happily ever after.” The sharp Vaudeville-esque comedy quickly puts the audience in a voyeuristic situation, as the characters, one by one, become unraveled as they peel off the tragedy of their lives piece by piece. They draw the spectators into a very private conversation among women, a conversation not meant to be heard by anyone else.
“The Clean House,” a dark, thought-provoking comedy by Sarah Ruhl, is opening Jan. 3. It stars local actors Catherine Caldera, Lynne Dellinger, Catalina Meders, John Trapper, and Patrice White. The director is Josie MacGillivray.
