A toxically satiric portrait of American life."--"Washington Post""When I told my mother that a theater was putting on my play "Bootycandy," her response was, 'What? "Bootycandy"? These white folks are going to let you put on a play called "Bootycandy"? ? Are they crazy ' And my response was, 'Yes. Yes indeed.'"--Robert O'HaraSutter is on an outrageous odyssey through his childhood home, his church, dive bars, motel rooms, and even nursing homes.
