Synopsis
In a cheap house made of plywood and glue, notions of masculinity and femininity become weapons with which to defeat the old order.
But in Taylor Mac's sly, subversive comedy, annihilating the past doesn't always free you from it.
Fed up with domestic patriarchy, Paige has stopped washing, cleaning and caring for their ailing father, who recently suffered a stroke.
She reigns supreme.
