As she returns from her latest Gathering, however, she discovers that a rival gang, The Black Stomp, has invaded her home.

Notes: | Original Playwright - August Strindberg | |||||
Synopsis: | In this line-by-line reinvention of August Strindberg's classic Miss Julie, writer and director Robert Cucuzza distills an essential tale of class and sexual power dynamics and transports it to modern-day Pittsburgh. Set during a failed car dealership's liquidation party, Cattywampus traces the rise and fall of Julie, the owner's wife, as she tries to escape the flaccid clutch of her disinterested husband. She sets out to seduce the unsophisticated detailer, Donnie, and gets much more than what she bargained fora dance partner, a goofy playmate, a cuckold-maker, and a partner in crime. Determined that Donnie and his restored Ford Pinto are her escape hatch out of married misery, she makes a last ditch effort and gambles it all on his cracked plan to relocate to Florida. But in a world that is so economically out-of-whack, she finds that her dreams of escape are no match for what seems like a predetermined fate. Cucuzza and his collaborators orchestrate an intense rollercoaster ride through distinctly American formsa sweeping country-western score written by Juli Crockett, Appalachian line dancing choreographed by Jordana Che Tobackalong with a combination of naturalistic acting and aggressive physicality that binds Strindberg's characters, both rich and poor, vividly exposing their shared vulnerability in a time of economic collapse. | |||||

Synopsis: | a manic dark comedy that tells the story of six hard-edged and desperate women at the turn-of-the-century who will stop at nothing to befriend, con, swindle, or kill a seventh woman-the mythological figure known as The Pedestrian Bill Souse.
