Handshake Uppercut
Synopsis:
Two slightly perverted but naively well-intentioned mutes drag each other through life with only each other's mischievous cruelty to keep them warm. With voyeuristic vaudeville bits and surrealist non sequitors, John and Jay marry Beckett's existential bleakness, the Marquis de Sade's power-games and Keaton's comedic sincerity. Both epic and infinitesimal, these gentlemen comrades will laugh you out of your seat while they steal it from under you. Warning: Violence, sexiness and booze will be goin' on.

Peg-Ass-Us
Synopsis:
Peg-ass-Us is a theatrical burlesque all about 'pegging,' the sexual act where a woman wearing a strap-on dildo penetrates a man's anus. a charming duo, Sophie and John (portrayed by co-creators and real-life couple Sophie Nimmannit and John Leo) set out to spread the word about the pleasures of prostate stimulation and strap-on sex. their headlong dive starts with the facts, but once in the deep end, their personal differences play tug-of-war with the lesson plan, pulling sex from silly to serious, between kink and dignity, and wrangling over issues of gender, sexual identity and personal desires. armed with original songs (accompanied by banjo-uke and glockenspiel), dance, puppetry, drag, physical comedy, and audience participation, the two lovers turn their bedroom and hearts inside out for the world to see. and take off their clothes
