About the Show

Go-Go Killers is a campy, stylized, choreographic, retro-futuristic play that depicts the New York metropolitan area ten years hence, imagining the potentially horrific outcomes of both the current economic crisis and the global warming debacle.  By "2019," the gulf between rich and poor has been so widened that anything approximating the  middle class ceases to exist.  Hordes of stylishly violent women, comprised of go-go dancing gang debs, roam America’s underbelly with the intent to kidnap or kill each member of a list of the nation’s wealthiest citizens. Go-Go Killers! is at once a frivolous 60’s B-movie jaunt and a horrifically foreboding vision of the future.  As a hybrid of these seemingly disparate elements, Go-Go Killers! is free to take either end of this spectrum well beyond the limits of tradition:  to combine the gothic theatricality of Eugene O’Neill with the cinematic girlsploitation of Russ Meyer. Pulp entertainment takes the stage by a dancing storm!
