About
WISHFUL DRINKING, Carrie Fisher's autobiographical solo show, follows Fisher's life. Born to celebrity parents, Fisher lands among the stars when she's picked to play a princess in a little movie called ‘Star Wars.' But her story isn't all sweetness and light sabers. As a single mom, she also battles addiction, depression, mental institutions, and that awful hyperspace hairdo. It's an incredible tale-from having her father leave her mother for Elizabeth Taylor to marrying and divorcing singer/songwriter Paul Simon, from having the father of her baby leave her for a man to waking up one morning and finding a friend dead beside her in bed. Don't miss this opportunity to see Carrie Fisher's hit Broadway show.

by erasure4me on 10/6/11Bank of America Theatre - ChicagoOf course I know who Carrie is, and have admired her on-screen for many years. But little did I know I would also get treated to just how brilliant she is off-the-cuff. Even though this is somewhat scripted show, she proved that she can do impromptu brilliance just like the best of them. I was not only entertained with some "Hollywood" history but also was schooled on what not-to-do with her life-lessons. The only negative thing I can say is because there is so much material for her to chose from, each show can potentially be as different as those memories permit. There's just solution for this - to see her more than once!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Carrie Fisher is Fantastic
by ginae123 on 10/6/11Bank of America Theatre - ChicagoCarrie Fisher has so much talent for writing that I was a little worried about her onstage performance. No worries needed, she did a fabulous job with her onstage performance! Her self-deprecating humor was well done, you never felt sorry for her or feel uncomfortable when hearing the tough times she went through. She remained very matter of fact, "This is my life, and yes, it is amusing." It is refreshing for someone from Hollywood to be as open and direct as her, without accusing or blaming anyone for her situation.
