| High comedy on the high seas turned upside-down in 'Poseidon' |
Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune, December 11, 2002
"... Sweetback Productions, the Chicago troupe that made its name lampooning such films as 'Plan 9 From Outer Space,' 'Valley of the Dolls' and 'The Birds,' fell apart in an acrimonious split last season. David Cerda -- who penned music, lyrics and book to those past hits -- and most of the other main creative types from Sweetback now have regrouped under the apt name of Hell in a Handbag Productions. ..." |

| Musical lets 'Poseidon' fans indulge fixation |
Mary Schmich, Chicago Tribune, January 31, 2003
"Imagine little boys in little American towns turning bedsheets into evening gowns and pretending they're in a luxury liner, drowning. Imagine those little boys coming many years later to Chicago, capital of the American heartland, where they discover each other and put on a play that lets them act out the boyhood fantasy of their favorite movie. ... Nothing had ever been so thrilling to boys such as Steve Hickson and David Cerda. ... 'Growing up,' [Hickson] says, 'I thought I was the only freak out there.' But as a member of a small Chicago theater company, Sweetback Productions, he discovered fellow freaks. He learned they even had a name: Poseidonites. David Cerda was one. ..." |

| Troupe sets sail with musical 'Poseidon' |
Web Behrens, Chicago Tribune, December 13, 2002
"Standing in the courtyard of the Ebenezer Lutheran Church in Andersonville, one can hear the screams coming from inside. But church officials in the nearby office aren't fazed at all. It's just another rehearsal day for the boisterous cast of 'Poseidon! An Upside-Down Musical,' a first from Chicago's newest theater company, Hell in a Handbag Productions. ..." |

| On the Fringe: Flipping for 'Poseidon' one more time |
Kerry Reid, Chicago Tribune, June 26, 2009
"The 1972 mother-of-all-disaster-flicks carries a sentimental attachment for many of us -- that remains untarnished by tawdry memories of 1979's 'Beyond the Poseidon Adventure' and the 2006 not-really-a-remake IMAX-infused 'Poseidon.' David Cerda first raised the roof in 2002 with his 'Poseidon! An Upside Down Musical,' a goofy and affectionate tribute to the film and 'Poseidonites' everywhere. Now Hell in a Handbag has taken the old girl out for one more voyage, and despite a few glitches, it's mostly a great summer cruise, filled with equal parts acerbic deconstruction of disaster-movie tropes (the band of plucky survivors fighting and falling for each other) and real affection for the film's hopeful message, as expressed in the gospel-tinged 'Keep on Climbing.' ..." |
