The Pearl by Rebecca Massa & Robert Massa

2pm

Beneath the stiff corsets and proper tea times of Victorian London lies a scandalous secret waiting to be uncovered. Enter the world of “The Pearl“, a forbidden underground erotic magazine that threatens to turn a seemingly respectable household upside down. A disastrous wedding night, a marriage unconsummated, a man desperate to get a glimpse of… an ankle, Victorian treatments for hysteria… all are treated with a candor that will forever leave you in no doubt that our 19th Century progenitors were far for puritanical in their outlook!

A hilarious, raucous romp that strips away the veneer of 19th-century morality, “The Pearl” is a riotous comedy about repressed desires, family secrets, and the timeless urge to see exactly what is underneath those skirts. Leave your modesty at the door for this uproarious, unforgettable comedy!

Hedwig and the Angry Inch

Thursdays-Saturdays @ 7
Sundays @ 2

DON’T YOU KNOW ME WINSTON SALEM?! I’M THE NEW BERLIN WALL, BABY! TRY AND TEAR ME DOWN!!

Hedwig and the Angry Inch is back at Camel City Playhouse for another run this June!

The concept of the stage production is that the audience is watching genderqueer rock singer Hedwig Robinson’s musical act as she follows rock star Tommy Gnosis around the country on his wildly successful tour. Gnosis is recovering from an incident that nearly ruined his career, a moment that intimately involved Hedwig. Capitalizing on her notoriety from the incident, Hedwig is determined to tell the audience her story.

Brilliant, innovative, moving, and wickedly funny, Hedwig is out to set the record straight about her life, her loves, and the operation that left her with that angry inch. Part rock concert, part cabaret, part stand-up comedy routine, this one-of-a-kind musical proves time and again that an indomitable spirit can’t ever be tied down.

Special appearance by Sorta Spooky as The Angry Inch! (Alex Ward, Dice Jordan, and Jax Velazquez)
