The show opened at Helen's Hidaaway room on the 25 Feb 2005 and was booking to the 29 Jul.

The cabaret/comedy act plays on Friday's at 11pm, in order to allow those who prefer to retire to their beds earlier, two extra shows have been added to the schedule on Mon 9 May and the 23 May beginning at the earlier time of 9:30pm.

Judy and Bea: Two Dorothy's reunited...for the 1st time! is to go on tour and will open at Provincetown's UU Meeting House on the 28 May where it will run to the 16 Jul 2005. The show will then go to Orlando, Fire Island, Los Angeles, Palm Springs, New Orleans, and Washington DC before returning for a fall run at Helen's.

Peter Mac and John Schaefer (a couple in real life) take to the stage as the legendary rainbow diva and as the loveable golden girl. In this new musical cabaret show Garland and Arthur regale audiences with songs and stories of their days on stage and screen, as well as a bevy of musical surprises such as "The Man In The Moon".

Peter Mac first took to the stage as Garland in his autobiographical play "Judy and Me". John Schaefer filled Arthur's sizeable shoes in the smash hit, "The Golden Girls: LIVE!". Though never having once worked, met, or spent any time together...Garland and Arthur prove to be true Bosom Buddies!
