5 Male 3 Female

The author of Sticks and Bones turns his attention to diabolism in tracking a go go dancer in a boom boom room

Had her mother been as successful in inducing her third abortion as she was in the first two, the go go girl would never have been born

Her father is a slob who hates Blacks, is constantly in and out of prison for theft, and who used to enter his daughter in drinking contests with other depraved children. The art of cussing and her grossest habits she learned from her father, and she digs astrology

We meet her co workers in the boom boom room, whose love lives are bizarre. She has one date with a creep, but then hooks on to two weirdos

One she lives with, and the other tries to get her to drink his blood so that he can communicate with her telepathically. And finally, she is approached by a lesbian who extols her own kind of sex play

"Compassion for anguished people leavened by a black wit and a powerful sense of the surreal nature of modern life" ~ Newsweek

"A superior play, perhaps a masterpiece" ~ WINS
