Lipstick Traces at Addison Theatre Centre

Based on Lipstick Traces: A Secret History of the Twentieth Century by Greil Marcus, Lipstick Traces was originally created and produced by Rude Mechs. The world premiere production took place in Austin, TX at The Off Center in 2000. A Narrator with a Ph.D. joins Sex Pistols manager and self-proclaimed mastermind, Malcolm McLaren, to recount an alternative history of the 20th century via the Sex Pistols, the Cabaret Voltaire, the May 68 riots, and a handful of medieval heretics. Lipstick Traces is a physically ecstatic and intellectually nervy theatrical vision of movements in culture that raised no monuments movements that barely left a trace.
Ages: 13 and up (This play contains explicit language and adult themes.)
