Beach Blanket Babylon Updated

Beach Blanket Babylon, the San Francisco institution, a campy musical theatre gala known for its big hats and wigs, wasted no time in updating its show to include the same-sex marriage decision.

Last night, the wonderfully flamboyant gay character in pink 18th Century French costume with enormous pink hair sang, "I got married in the morning! ... I'm still a two-some, thanks to Mayor Newsom, the Supreme Court saw things my way!"

The theatre troupe often includes recent events in its shows.

Note that clicking the above link to the BBB site will automatically start a loud rendition of "San Francisco (Open Your Golden Gate)". Other pictures and show information are available on the website.
