Girls Just Wanna Have...Tickets to Girls Only!

Tickets are now on sale for Denver Center Attractions’ production of GIRLS ONLY – The Secret Comedy of Women, running September 18 – December 21 in The Garner Galleria Theatre at the Denver Performing Arts Complex. This production is generously sponsored by CooGIRLS ONLY, written and performed by Barbara Gehring and Linda Klein, is an original comedy that celebrates the honor, truth, humor and silliness of being female. With a two-woman cast and audiences full of raucous, laughing ladies, the show has found quick popularity in its unique examination of all things girly.

Born out of the earnest and sweetly absurd writings the two authors discovered in their girlhood diaries, the GIRLS ONLY mix of sketch comedy, improvisation, audience participation, and hilarious songs and videos reminds audiences of the very funny and very charming similarities all women share.

“We are so excited to continue to share GIRLS ONLY with women in the Rocky Mountain region,” said Gehring and Klein. “We created this show to be a celebration of being a woman, and we have such fun seeing the ladies who come to the show really let loose and laugh at themselves.

Barbara Gehring is a veteran of improvisation, sketch comedy and theatre, and is also a commercial actor in the Denver market. Together with Linda Klein and Matthew Taylor, she is a founder and performer in the international comedy troupe A.C.E. Gehring’s film credits include “Dragon and the Hawk” and television credits include Fox Sports Network’s “Best Damn Sports Show” and national commercials.

Linda Klein has been an active member of the Denver comedy scene for the last 15 years and along with Gehring and Taylor is a founding member of A.C.E. comedy troupe. Klein has performed on stages in Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago and also does commercial and voiceover work nationally.

Performers Amie MacKenzie and Allison Watrous will also join the production. MacKenzie is a graduate of the Colorado College and has been seen regularly as a narrator with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and in national commercials and films. Her local theatre credits include The Dinner Party, for which she received a nomination for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy from The Denver Post.
