Due to extraordinary audience demand, Theatre Rhinoceros has extended the run of The Twelve Days of Cochina. The irreverent holiday comedy, written and performed by iconic comedienne Marga Gomez, will now run through December 31.
Directed by Theatre Rhino Artistic Director John Fisher, Gomez's naughty solo piece has been embraced by critics and audiences alike. The San Francisco Chronicle hailed The Twelve Days of Cochina as "a welcome dash of holiday hilarity,"Â sending the roaring crowds into "wave after wave of orgasmic laughter."Â The Bay Area Reporter added that "the inimitable Marga Gomez brings a take-no-prisoners zeal"Â to her hilarious performance.
The Twelve Days of Cochina is a sleigh ride through Christmases past, present, and future: See Santa's little Cochina traumatized by her evil aunt! Join the Bush family (as nasty puppets) at the Crawford ranch! Watch helplessly as global warming melts Frosty the Inappropriate Snowman! Mixing every holiday classic with the silliest smut, musical interludes, and an Al Gore PowerPoint presentation, The Twelve Days of Cochina is a nympho-fuelled ecological Christmas carol for adults only.
Following the special closing performance on December 31 at 7 p.m., audience members are invited to join Gomez for a complimentary toast to ring in the new year.
