Welcome to Adult Night School. Tonight’s lesson is inspired by students who have shared their stories in our online forum and have been inspired by this bold live lesson on Power and Propaganda. Teacher TIMBER VALE and her assistant, Massage Therapist ROGER MANN, will be your guides on this educational, poetic journey. HOPPER NEWTON, a student from last semester who continues to find herself in compromising positions, returns to class with her best friend, LAKE CHARLES, the owner of a strip club who has recently fallen in love. Perhaps the most compelling of stories is that of VALERIE SWEET, a rich woman who has surrendered all control to her new boyfriend, a minister with sadomasochistic prowess. Play along with us in this interactive night of roleplay with erotic appeal and spiritual purpose at Adult Night School, where the audience may decide between alternate outcomes.
Adult Night School is a poetic stage play written by author and poet Jessica Holter (The Punany Experience, Verbal Penetration, Truth is a Trap House.) Holter, who also writes as Ghetto Girl Blue, delivers a titillating ensemble of poetry and social commentary in this bold, artistic probe into the demonization of female sexuality and the miseducation of the dom. Order this play and create your own production that will provoke conversations about societal norms and taboos.
