WHAT: Napolean’s Wh*re Sister
WHERE: The Broadwater (Second Stage), 6320 Santa Monica Bl
WHY: Shannon Corbeil has written an all-female romp taking us back to the very beginning of Napoleon’s rule, a time in which his sister, Pauline, is not behaving. Set at a party where the audience doubles as the guests, this broad and raunchy comedy uses improv, audience participation and just straight up silliness to shout out the inequity of the sexes and how society demands perfection from women… and punishes them if they dare to revel in their own sexuality.
The cast – Shannon Corbeil, Deborah Lee Smith, Sarah J. Eagen and Shelley Regner – is clearly having a blast. You will learn a bit of history and celebrate a woman who says, “I am who I am and I don’t give a damn!”
