Living your true self is nearly a crime again, so join the OGs of F*ck You Counterculture for a night of radical joy and glitter-encrusted anarchy.
A fever dream of gender-bending hippies, freaks and drag queens, led by flowers-in-guns radical Hibiscus and disco diva Sylvester, The Cockettes took San Francisco by storm in 1969. But when they tried to take their acid-fuelled, avant-garde act mainstream in NYC, it all went horribly wrong.
A new musical with music & lyrics by Brandon James Gwinn and book by Rae Binstock, exploding with on-your-feet numbers and in-your-face hilarity.
