From December 4-21, “The Golden Girls Live: The Christmas Episodes” will perform at the historic Curran Theater. This marks the second year in a row that the popular drag parody plays the theater. This year the “Live” show celebrates its twentieth year, just as the original TV series celebrates its 40th.

“The Golden Girls” ran on NBC from 1985-1992 and was a top-rated show for its entire run. Set in Miami, it followed the adventures of four older women who became a chosen family. It was a series that was unafraid to tackle what were at the time controversial subjects, like lesbianism and crossdressing. But always, its first and main goal was to make people laugh.
