In NY, the Jane Street Theatre proudly presents the musical version of Debbie Does Dallas:
The folks who brought Urinetown to Broadway have mined the New York International Fringe Festival yet again, and this time they're bringing Debbie Does Dallas to the mainstream. This show was the hit of the 2001 FringeNYC (though not well-reviewed at all); the Araca Group has engaged Erica Schmidt to revise the script and restage the show and now we'll see what they've come up [with]. The show is a musical version of the famous porn film, in which ambitious Debbie will stop at nothing for a shot at a Dallas Cowboys cheerleading job.But don't get too excited, Michael Criscuolo starts his review with:
Okay, let's get the important stuff out of the way first. The new Off-Broadway production of the porn classic Debbie Does Dallas does not contain any nudity or sex. Adapter/director Erica Schmidt and composer Andrew Sherman have put musical numbers in place of all the film's sex scenes.My curiosity was insufficient for the task of investigating Urinetown.
