Treadwell unashamedly tackles themes of prostitution, homosexuality, sadomasochistic sex, and the role of women in the 1950's. Her punchy dialogue retains the power to shock and her pioneering creation of strong and dominant female characters earned her the title of "Broadway's Bravest Woman." World Premiere.Presented byWhite Bear Theatre. Director Graham Watts. Design Emma Boomer. Costume Emma Boomer. Lighting Paola Capuano. Performer Thomas Martin (Garry). Performer Phebe Alys (Wilma).
