About this show

Opening night – 1926. Sister showgirls Amelia and Avi have practiced their dance steps, perfected their costumes and downed a celebratory glass of champagne. But two other sisters lurk below the floorboards, and they are ready to take back what is ratfully theirs. Sisters and lifelong collaborators, Amelia and Avi Gorman are thrilled to share their first full-length work with you. A comedy infused with puppetry, drama, and a little bit of showgirl magic, The Spectacular Vermin Sisters is a celebration of those who crave the limelight.
