Womens House of Detention, 1960. The hair is high, the dresses are tight, and the women are bad! Behind steel bars and under unforgiving institutional lighting, a cast of characters plays out the age-old game of survival of the fittest in stilettos and lipstick! A fresh-faced innocent, a chain-smoking street-wise tough girl, a delicate Southern belle reminiscent of Blanche DuBois, a lovable granny, and a pyromaniac narcoleptic - all overseen by the tyrannical and overpowering Matron and her nefarious sidekick - these are the WOMEN BEHIND BARS!Headlining the cast are pop culture icon Traci Lords as Gloria and RuPauls Drag Race fan-favorite star Eureka OHara as The Matron, the role made famous by the legendary Divine; RPDR and RPDR All-Stars personalities Ginger Minj as Ada and Chi Chi DeVayne as Jo-Jo; drag legend and star of Trick, Girls Will Be Girls, and Will and Grace, Miss Coco Peru as Louise; John Waters muse and star of Pink Flamingos, Serial Mom, Female Trouble, and Hairspray, Mink Stole as Granny; Los Angeles cabaret performer and star of Whatta Lark, Poppy Fields as Blanche; and internationally-renowned Marilyn Monroe tribute artist, Suzie Kennedy as Cheri. Also rounding out the cast is adult film superstar, Wesley Woods as The Man; Adrienne Couper Smith as Mary, the innocent who is ultimately corrupted by the system; and Tatiana Monteiro as the fiery Guadalupe.
