  • Jenny Jones: Wild & Crazy Bachelor Parties

    Jenny Jones aggressively interviews some guests about their Bachelor Party experiences and how it affected their relationship. No one has a point and no one learns a lesson, but what they do have is more wine-colored shirts than anyone can count.

    Sally condescends to some young-ish people who have made or are actively making some pretty bad life choices. Gilda prances and swans around the stage, helping no one but giving a fully realized performance. The audience gets their own mic and becomes their own character.
