All those girls living in one house for so long. You knew they were up to nothing good. In Jamie Morris' stage version of
The Facts of Life: The Lost Episode, Eastland is short on funds and looking to axe Mrs. Garrett. Natalie, Tootie, Jo and Blair will do anything to raise enough money to keep her on staff.
Anything.
This campy stage production, making its New York City debut later this Spring, features five drag performers enacting
Facts' fictional lost episode "The Best Little Whorehouse in Peekskill." If you're visiting New York this Spring,
skip Broadway and head downtown. It's just a hunch, but I'm betting you won't see Eastland the same way again. (Not that you thought Natalie or Jo were 100% straight anyway.)

Off-Broadway theater's accidental punchline
The Blue Man Group will be
making an appearance on this season's premiere of
Scrubs. The blue-skinned, percussion-inclined trio will be joined on stage by Zach Braff's character J.D. at The Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino.
This is, of course, not the Blue Man's first television appearance. In addition to numerous ads and talk show appearances, the group was part of an on-going
Arrested Development gag, which involved David Cross' Tobias as the group's perpetual understudy. I've got my fingers-crossed for an
Arrested Development-Scrubs crossover episode. Zach Braff appeared on the beloved, canceled Fox sitcom and hinted in interviews of Tobias, a licensed therapist, making a possible stop at Sacred Heart Hospital. It's probably just wishful thinking, but a comedy fan can dream.
The
Scrubs season premiere is set for Thursday, November 30th at 9PM.
