That's What She Said

The Los Angeles Women's Theatre Project at the Stella Adler Theatre as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival

This lesbian-themed, cabaret-style piece, featuring the abundant talents of vocalist Amy Turner and keyboardist-singer Kathryn Lounsbery, is first-rate fun. Their original numbers ("Lesbian Cliché Song," "Fanny Pack Lover," "U-Haul Rap," etc.) and comedic rapport are charmingly witty. Though occasionally a bit "inside" with the countless sexual/genitalia references, the duo's output is remarkably diverse in style.

Highlights include a send-up called "H.M.Lez Pinafore," "You Can't Spell Pussy Without US," a country-western piece whose title adorns the pair's T-shirts, and "Why Is My Right Wrong?" a requisite yet touching anti–Proposition 8 ballad. All in all, these ladies offer something for everyone.

Presented by the Los Angeles Women's Theatre Project at the Stella Adler Theatre, 6773 Hollywood Blvd., L.A. Fri., June 4-July 16, 8 p.m. (818) 471-9100. www.hollywoodfringe.org.
