Champagne Ladies, TheChampagne Ladies, The
Synopsis:
The Champagne Ladies chronicles the last night of the sexual revolution. The entire action of the play takes place in Dante's Inferno, a sleazy stripper bar in New York City on one hot summer night. The play is about the women who work in this establishment. They are all B-Girls/Strippers/Prostitutes. Their stories are based on the lives of 40 real-life working girls that the authors have interviewed. The play is a theatrical, hard-hitting, and realistic look at the "World's Oldest Profession." This unique play requires seven "earthy" actresses and two actors (the owner and a drag queen). The play was written to show that the life of a prostitute is nothing like the life of Juliet Roberts in "Pretty Woman." It takes a no-holds bar look at the profession. To make sure of its accuracy, the national support group for prostitutes, COYOTE as well as a psychologist who works with "working girls" was consulted in the writing of this script. They all found the script true to life with something important to say. This play was written with long-time producer/writer John L. Price and award-winning writer and psychologist Pamela V. Noll. The play takes place during the last days of "The Sexual Revolution." "The Champagne Ladies," is based on real-life women and their lives. The play is about a day in the life of a group of stripper/B-girl bar taking place in their dressing room during the early 1980s when the outbreak of AIDS was first becoming known in the sex industry. Many of the ladies are too much into "the life" to quit, but a social worker is determine to at least save one lady from this dangerous world.
