"Los Big Names"

Jerry Friedman, ABC Radio

Award-winning New York comedienne, Marga Gomez, has returned to the Bay Area to perform the West Coast Premiere of her autobiographical solo show, "Los Big Names". In it, she takes you back to New York in the 60s growing up with her Cuban belly-dancing mother and comedian father and their world of Latino show business. And then she transports us to Hollywood in the 90s and the start of her own show business career. She hilariously recants the many problems that were encountered along the way, and plays all of the characters. It's loaded with laughs, well written, beautifully staged with clever visuals and sound effects, and superbly performed by one of the most talented and hardest working standup comediennes in the business.

For KGO entertainment, I'm Jerry Friedman.

Los Big Names is a sweet and saucy riff on life at the outer edge of the spotlight by a woman who knows that foggy territory.

—Peter Marks, Washington Post
