A tale of boy-meets-girl, but the whole involves much more than the sum
of their parts! In a no-holes-barred sexploration of "pegging,"
these lovers sing, dance and tease along the delicious line between fetish/preference,
queer/straight, wrong and oh-so right, turning their bedroom and hearts
inside out for the world to see. Sex-ed mixed with burlesque, song, puppetry
and, of course, mythical creatures. "A hilariously penetrating look
at a practice that deserves more exposure. Go see this, unless you're a
prude."
