Where's Tipper Now?

Synopsis:
This political play examines how labeling all we view and listen to became common practice. The play begins with the PMRC senate hearings in the 80s and traces the origins of the "labeling culture" we now live in to the events of the "Washington Wives" and their drive to label all material consumed as entertainment today.
