A musical comedy that sends up the contradictions of purity culture from the perspective of a young woman with a frightening anatomical anomaly.
Dawn O’Keefe is an Evangelical teen with a bizarre secret: two rows of gleaming white teeth perfectly placed to preserve her chastity. When the supposedly upright Christian men around her prove more interested in taking advantage of her body than in protecting it, they quickly learn to keep their hands (and other appendages) to themselves. From Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Michael R. Jackson (A Strange Loop) and Anna K. Jacobs (POP!), and based on the cult classic film of the same name, Teeth is a toe-tapping, gut-busting, musical satire that gets under the skin of patriarchy and our sex-obsessed and sex-repressed society.
