Publisher Description: Subtitled "A Documentary Fantasy Musical About Life in Prison," BABES IN THE BIG HOUSE explores feminism, sexuality, and the degradation of women. "BABES IN THE BIGHOUSE is a wildly varying production, with situations so funny they're sad, so tragic they're hilarious. The characters are acid-strong." "BABES is a funny, shocking, affecting piece of theater. Ms Terry's jazz-like verbal constructions were absolutely great." "Megan Terry, like Kafka did in The Trial, uses razor-honed, sardonic gallows humor to coax empathy and understanding--so her theme--the dehumanization of incarcerated people aided and abetted by sexist stereotyping and sadism--comes across with even greater power and urgency." |
