This groundbreaking show, by Earl Wilson, Jr., ran for over 1300 performances, offering an all-inclusive, sexually liberated vision for a pre-AIDS 1970s audience. We also explore its uninhibited embrace of pleasure, acceptance for all, and why this audacious production, despite its Grammy-nominated cast recording, famously never "opened" and held the record for the most preview performances ever. Discover the vibrant legacy of a downtown musical that truly embodied the spirit of sexual freedom! --- Theme music created by Blake Stadnik.
