Daddy Developed a Pill
VENUE
by cassie hamilton
The gender-fucked farce about pegging, prolapses and needing to piss. How far would you go to make Daddy proud?
Cynthia is Daddy’s good little girlboss. She has followed in his pharmaceutical footsteps to develop a miracle wellness pill and tonight, its powers go on display for the first time…
Daddy Developed a Pill is a chaotic queer comedy set over one raucous night of deviance and debauchery. A line-up of sixteen psychotic characters portrayed by only three actors means fast wit with even faster quick changes. Against a backdrop of upper-middle-class identity crisis with mortal stakes, it’s Don’s Party meets Euphoria, meets an Apple keynote. Come see how terrible gay people can be!!!
