Salvage Vanguard Theater (SVT) announces an open rehearsal and a workshop performance of Denim Doves as part of our Works Progress Austin new play development series.
“You are safe here, Sister.” Inside the compound walls, five fertile sister-wives enjoy many freedoms. Free sleep. Free Welches grape. Free laughter. Free denims of every length. Set in a dystopian future (which feels a lot like the mid 1990s), Denim Doves is a collaboratively devised feminist farce that explores themes of women in subjugation and the hilarious consequences of a rigid dick-tatorship.

Cast: Kerri Atwood, Florinda Bryant, Henna Chou, Alyssa Dillard, Judd Farris, Jenny Larson, Renna Larson, Khattie Q, Erik Secrest and Cyndi Williams. Dramaturgy: Meredith B Robbins.
