LOS BIG NAMES. I recently saw Marga Gomez's Los Big Names at The Puerto Rican Traveling Theater. It's an entertaining one-woman show in which Gomez remembers family life with her entertainer parents Willy Chevalier and Margarita.

As some of you might know, I sometimes have strange opinions when it comes to judging resemblances, but don't you agree that Gomez (pictured) resembles a Marianne Petit character? Even their work seems to have much in common. Gomez's anecdotal life story covers her childhood (like When I Was Three, though not as lighthearted) as well as some of her adult experiences (like 716).

Do you see where I'm going with this? That's right: I suspect the two might make a great creative pairing.

Discounts for Los Big Names can be found through Playbill and perhaps other sources (including TKTS).
