ATG Colonial has announced the Boston engagement of Jacqueline Novak's GET ON YOUR KNEES, fresh off its four-time-extended hit off-Broadway engagement.

Comedian Jacqueline Novak's GET ON YOUR KNEES is the most high-brow show about blow jobs you'll ever see. Novak spins her material on the femininity of the penis and the stoicism of the vulva into an unexpectedly philosophical show that's part feminist outcry, part coming-of-age tale of triumph. Ira Glass calls it a "nearly Talmudic dissection of a subject. Really funny and just really like nothing else."
"We are so excited for Boston audiences to experience this artist," said Erica Lynn Schwartz, general manager of the Colonial for Ambassador Theatre Group. "Presenting outside the four walls of the theatre is a new venture for us, but an important one, especially in terms of broadening our programming offerings and setting them in the right spaces."
