“Selene Luna effortlessly initiates the theme of the tour that Margaret Cho amplifies when she takes center stage — interweaving the polarizing political and social climate with a motivating message whilst simultaneously providing strong comedic rhetoric. Doing this is quite difficult without creating an awkward or divergent environment. However, Luna sets the precedent. By the time Cho takes to the microphone, Luna has wasted no time.” — OUT IN JERSEY
“Cho’s national tour opener, Selene Luna, also found humor in the White
House, joking that the current administration just may be our
punishment for avoiding the Y2K apocalypse that might have been.
Luna also generated lots of laughs sharing her love of being a
newlywed and her terrifying near-death experience of making love
on memory foam.”— REBELLIOUS MAGAZINE
“A delightful emotional rollercoaster… makes you leave the theater
satisfied that you are perfect just the way you are! … This show has
EVERYTHING I look for in an evening of entertainment.”— FRONTIERS MAGAZINE
