Dirty Girls

Dirty girls proving that they are indeed Dirty Girls.

Knockabout Theatre Co. offers up a healthy dose of dirty fun in *Dirty Girls*, a modern fairy tale based on Edna St. Vincent Millay’s Two Slatterns and a King.

A germophobic tyrant king must marry to fulfill a prophecy, but has already rejected every virgin in his kingdom on the grounds of being too filthy. He seeks the help of a sleazy matchmaker, who sets up a contest between the two remaining options: Tidy, the king’s besotted right hand woman, and Slut, the dirtiest girl in the kingdom.

With mud slinging aplenty and a clever script, the team behind Dirty Girls have plenty of fun with the fairy tale genre. Just watch out in the first two rows, where you’re liable to get caught up in the action…

_Dirty Girls continues until July 11th as part of this year's Toronto Fringe Festival. You can feel dirty "here":http://www.fringetoronto.com/fringe09/indoorBYOV_listings.html#D or you could go "here":http://dirtygirlsfringe.wordpress.com/ and get positively filthy!_
