Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The Beauty Shop is UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT and the new owner’s name is "BIG MAMA LUCILLE." ‘Big Mama’ is actually not so big because she’s a sassy, sexy and flirtatious midget with all the elements that a beauty shop owner could ever ask for. Her shop is loaded with gossip, craziness and cat-fights…not to mention the outrageous characters that work for her. The daily issues that arise in the shop range from adultery and bad hygiene to dirty talk and bachelorette parties. As usual, in this Beauty Shop there’s hysterical laughter, dynamic singing and surprises galore. This is not a gospel stage play, but rather a side-splitting, comedic production; an evening of non-stop laughter and just like the original, "BEAUTY SHOP" is total entertainment.

4.0 out of 5 stars It Wasn't That Bad!, February 13, 2006
Even though I thought that sweetness was overdoing his gay roll, it had it's perks. It kept me awake and had me laughing to the point where I couldn't breathe. Especially when Big mama pulled the gun out on the girl and waltzed out in that zebra cat suit and the cast thought it was so funny, they forgot their lines and had the guy come out and tell them what was to be said next. The play has its ups and downs, but you gotta be in a certain mood to watch it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beauty Shop: Original Staged MESS!!!!, July 21, 2005
By D. Pruitt (NYC, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the worst mess I've ever seen. The cast is lousy and the actors stink. The sound is horrible and some of the cast members are shouting there dialogue instead of speaking loud and clearly. There is a difference in speaking loud and clear or just plain shouting. It's hard to watch because of the lack of structure-In short this stage play is a HOT MESS!! Don't waste your money on this one. Do not rent or buy this dvd if you do you will be highly disappointed. So if you must see it borrow it from a friend that will probably thank you for taking it off there hands.

1.0 out of 5 stars Even as a play alone it's pretty bad, March 13, 2006
By PolarisDiB "dibness" (Southwest, USA) - See all my reviews
  
What's the point?

I have a particular fondness of theatre, but the best part of theatre is being there. This movie tries hard to give that experience by showing reaction shots of the audience, but it's not the same.

Some stage shows are open enough and large enough to translate well into a filmed narration without changing sets or adapting. This isn't one of them. In fact, even as a play alone it's pretty bad. The characters are one-dimensional caricatures, the script is lousy, most of the acting is pretty bad, and it doesn't really have a storyline... really...

The only part that's even remotely interesting is the scene where Big Mama wears the zebra suit and the cast just loses control and completely breaks the fourth wall. Yet even still that moment would be a lot more special and a lot more endearing had I actually been there than have to rely on shoddily shot video editing to tell me where to look.

All in all, it was a pretty ridiculous experience, not worth even the price of a rental.
