Split Britches: Lesbian Practice/Feminist Performance is a long-awaited celebration of the theater and writing of Lois Weaver, Peggy Shaw, and Deb Margolin, who have won two Obies and other distinguished awards for their performance skills, ensemble work, and textual innovation.Since the late '70s, the Split Britches theater company, comprised of Lois Weaver, Peggy Shaw, and Deborah Margolin have been making lesbian-feminist theater in the United States and Europe. This book collects several of the troupe's texts, among them "Beauty and the Beast," "Upwardly Mobile Home," and "Little Women," arch, post-modern retakes on cultural icons. Case's astute introduction traces the history of this first and most important theater group as it both reflects and creates the thought of feminist art of the last 20 years.
