lovertits

By Annie Wilson
March 26 - 28, 2015

Straight from Philadelphia, Lovertits is a burlesque-postmodern-dance-theater-bad-improv performance by Philly favorite Annie Wilson. Why does the performance of sexiness look so different from the actual act of sex? Why is it so funny? Why anxiety dreams about losing things in your vagina? Why “Orgasm Wars?” Why clitoris? Why weird bags of fat that hang from your chest? Lovertits features co-creator/performers Wilson, Christina Gesualdi, Jenna Horton and Ilse Zoerb, sound design by Adriano Shaplin, lighting by Andrew Thompson and costumes by Amy Martin
