Holly Hughes brings WELL OF HORNINESS back to NYC!

May 8 & 9, 2013 at 7:30pm

Holly Hughes brings her famous and infamous WELL OF HORNINESS back to NYC for a 30th year anniversary production!

A broad and campy romp featuring broads who were run out of camps, this sapphic spectacle is the unholy love child of Radclyffe Hall on acid and Charles Ludlam on estrogen. The play has had numerous productions every year since its premiere, some times to acclaim, like winning the People’s Choice at the Orlando Fringe Festival, and sometimes to outrage, as when it was banned in 2009 at the College of Staten Island.

Buy tickets HERE!

Dixon Place
161A Chrystie St
New York, NY 10002
(212) 219.0736

Dixon Place is proud to be co-presenting Ruff for P.S. 122’s COIL Festival !


Peggy Shaw has always had a host of crooners, lounge singers, movie stars, rock and roll bands, and eccentric family members living inside her. Ruff is a tribute to those who have kept Shaw company over the last 68 years, a lament for the absence of those who disappeared into the dark holes left behind by her recent stroke, and a celebration that her brain is able to fill the blank green screens with new insight.


Opening night is this Thursday, January 10, at 7:30pm
Get tickets at the official COIL website
