Split Britches

Split Britches transformed the landscape of queer performance with its vaudevillian satirical gender-bending performance. Those unfamiliar with the work of Lois Weaver and Peggy Shaw have a rare opportunity, for one night only at Swarthmore, to see what cultural scholars have been writing about since Weaver and Shaw helped found the WOW Café in the 80′s. Co-sponsored by the Departments of English, Theater, Film & Media Studies and Gender Studies.
