Sometimes the only thing better than a goofy genre movie, is an equally goofy send-up of said genre. Renaissance woman of the stage, Allison Beula, has put together such a send-up with her loving parody of the 60’s surf movie, curtly titled The Tiki Bikini Beach Paradise Party A-Go-Go. This perfectly crafted cheese-fest first took the 2011 Toronto Fringe Festival by storm (check out our review here), and is back to warm the winter-braving crowds at The Next Stage Festival. Here is Allison with her thoughts on why surf movies are so bad they’re good, the advantage of taking on all the key creative roles, and how the perfect musical collaborators can sometimes just fall in your lap.
