by PegNews wire

Theatre Three’s intimate downstairs play space, Theatre Too, continues with its 2008-2009 season with the world premiere comedy, Look What’s Happened to Pixie DeCosta!. All performances take place in Theatre Too, the 90-seat venue just below Theatre Three. Look What’s Happened to Pixie DeCosta! previews from October 3-5 and officially opens on Monday, October 6. It will close on Sunday, November 2, 2008.

From childhood, Pixie and Margot DeCosta have been destined to be stars! Their overbearing father planned it all: the movies, the parties, and the sheer adoration of fans. But not everything went according to plan. Margot grew up to be the triumphant elegant star of classic movies while Pixie became a crude starlet of tabloid news. After a horrible and mysterious accident during one of their glamorous parties, both sisters’ careers are ended while they are still in their prime. Twenty-five years later, Pixie DeCosta tries to revive her own career, only to reveal in bloody fashion what really happened that fateful night so long ago. This outrageous world premiere comedy pays loving tribute to the glory years of Hollywood Noir and Grand Guignol.

Writer Bruce R. Coleman is quite a reputable artist in the DFW theatre community and is Theatre Three’s Resident Artist. Mr. Coleman’s next writing project will be The Ballad of Belva Jane, biographical musical based on the life of his grandmother, the meanest woman he ever knew.

Preview prices are $20, and regular show prices run from $25-30. Purchase tickets online or by calling 214-871-3300.
