?There's always some sort of debate regarding Scott Walker brewing in Madison. Despite what anyone thinks of him as a politician, there is a fairly large disdain for the man in the artistic community. This could not be clearer than in Broom Street's newest production written by former Wisconsinite Brian Leahy Doyle.

As the saying goes 'size matters.' Here in America we like things big: big cars, big paychecks, big plates of food, and even big hairdos.
