Five productions, sold-out audiences, revivals of a contemporary comedy and a re-envisioned classic elicit rave reviews
After seeing our 2012 season opener, Humans Anonymous, a loyal TIC supporter described it as a quintessential Tongue in Cheek production, calling it “both funny and sweet.”
I loved hearing TIC summed up in this way. Now heading into our eighth season, I am thrilled by your support and thank you for continuing to make our sweetly funny productions possible.
Wishing you a 2013 filled with laughter and sweetness, both onstage and off!

I feel the opposite of Groucho Marx when he said he wouldn't like to be a part of a club that would have him as a member. What could be better than finding yourself in the company of wonderful, talented people?
To that point, Jessica Ammirati, producing artistic director of Going to Tahiti Productions, just posted one of the loveliest blog posts/reviews about Tongue in Cheek's spring production, The Mistakes Madeline Made.
Jess' post is entitled The Joys of Talented Friends... (chew on that cigar, Groucho), and here's an excerpt:
"As I'm coming to expect from TIC Theater, this dark comedy was a great evening of theater... filled with very funny/slightly surreal moments, which in and of itself was not much a surprise considering the playwright would go on to create and produce the Fox television show New Girl, starring Zooey Deschanel. But what did surprise me was how moving the play managed to be in the midst of some "wackiness" and though I'm sure that was a factor of the writing, it was also due to the direction of Brock H. Hill and the work of the extraordinary cast."
High praise from someone as accomplished as Jess. I can't wait to see her company's next production, Bella's Dream, a new play with dance, dreams and displacement by Dana Boll. Set in current day and 1939, it contrasts the lives of a used car salesman in Florida and newlyweds Bella and Raymond's trek from their homeland of Poland to a displaced persons camp in Germany. Bella's Dream runs for two weeks in June on the Lower East Side; tickets and more information at www.GoingToTahitiProductions.com.
So, to like-minded, talented friends, thank you for having me in your club and I look forward to when next we meet.
