Laura's Bush

I'm working on a new show in October that I'm really excited about. Here's a write up about it. Maybe it's playing a city near you!

"Theatre companies across America are joining in the world premiere of Laura's Bush, an apocalyptic lesbian sex farce by America's most undercover playwright, Jane Martin.

Like last year's Lysistrata Project, which encouraged theatre companies across the world to stage the Greek anti-war play in response to the pending war in Iraq, Laura's Bush comes to us just in time for the presidential elections. Along with the New York premiere, it will be seen in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Ann Arbor Seattle, Atlanta, and Detroit.

The play follows an absurdly prudish librarian as she enlists the help of a small town dominatrix to break Laura Bush out of the White House. Sexual and political hi-jinx ensue as they uncover a plot so evil and over-the-top that it just might be true. While Fahrenheit 911 raised eyebrows, this raunchy satire may raise other parts of the anatomy as well."
