Calm Your Tits.“Calm Your T!ts” – An Original Musical Comedy on Bodily Autonomy Comes to the VORTEX

The Weird Sisters Theater Collective is thrilled to announce their lauded production, “Calm Your T!ts,” a musical comedy spotlighting women’s bodily autonomy is back again for another round featuring 8 performances at the VORTEX on July 3-6 and 10-12.

“Calm Your T!ts” considers our current moment – the moment of trad wives, childless cat ladies, abortion restrictions, and unceasing expectations of doing it all – and asks, “What if we could laugh about it?” It follows a group of nascent feminists as they’re indoctrinated into the patriarchy and, ultimately, triumph over it.

Directed by Rachel Molad, with original songs by Laura Freeman, Calm Your T!ts is presented by The Weird Sisters Theater Collective, known for fearless storytelling and dedication to feminist issues. Their previous productions have been celebrated for bold content and engaging performances, and “Calm Your T!ts” is poised to be another standout.

Opening acts featuring Noelle Fitzsimmons’ Not a Dolphin Yet; music by Laura Freeman; and extra special guests!

Maybe she wasn’t the worst mother in Corpus Christi, Texas — but she was up there. So we should definitely talk about all the great things she did to the ladies at church! I love this plan!

Hailey!

What?

Pushing.

Okay fine. She was the best mommy ever! Puppies and chocolate for all!

Hailey!

At least cheeseburgers then.

FINE.
