ATHENS, Ga. – December 10, 2024 – Thank you for being a…fan! Following sold out performances and rave reviews across the country in 2024, The Golden Girls are back and better than ever with a stage show that’s more exciting than a trip to the Rusty Anchor. Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue will start with one show at The Classic Center Theatre on Friday, April 4, 2025.

Tickets are on sale Friday, December 13 at 10:00 a.m. and can be purchased at ClassicCenter.com/GoldenGirls. A very special VIP experience ticket includes the best available seats and photos with the actors on the Golden Girls set after the show.

Picture it. United States, 2025. Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue brings the sassiest seniors to stages around the country for one more hurrah. We find Sophia out on bail after being busted by the DEA for running a drug ring for retirees. Blanche and Rose have founded CreakN, a thriving sex app for seniors. And Dorothy is trying to hold it all together with help from a new (much) younger sex-crazed lover. Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue allows audiences to relive the heartfelt hilarity of the four ladies who never stopped being best friends.

Tickets range from $35 - $99, plus applicable fees.
Get your tickets early! Join The Classic Center Cultural Foundation by 10:00 p.m. on Wednesday, December 11, for access to the presale beginning Thursday, December 12.

Golden Girls: The Laughs Continue is a professional stage show unlike any other Golden Girls tribute that you might have experienced. The play is written by Robert Leleux, author of The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy and The Living End. The show is directed by Eric Swanson, who was the co-founder and Executive Director of The Detroit Actors’ Theatre Company. The cast includes Ryan Bernier as Dorothy, Vince Kelley as Blanche, Adam Graber as Rose, Christopher Kamm as Sophia, and Tommy Favorite as Stanley/Burt. The production is produced by Murray & Peter Present and Outback Presents.
