In San Francisco mid-1970’s, psychologist Katie Langley has two big problems: no job and no spark in the bedroom. Her only employment offer – a sex therapist in a clinic for men. Fearing her husband’s disapproval, she lies and tells him she’s a counselor at an all-boys Catholic school. But Katie soon discovers she’s not the only one with secrets… and by the end, everyone is unzipped.
A sexy new musical, the original story for UNZIPPED came from the mind of sex therapist, author and award-winning songwriter Eva Margolies who has appeared on Oprah, GMA and 20/20. She also co-wrote the book, music and lyrics with Douglas J. Cohen, an award-winning writer whose work includes No Way to Treat a Ladywhich has had over 200 productions regionally and abroad, plus The Big Time with Douglas Carter Beane, Barnstormer and Bridges with TRU co-founder Cheryl L. Davis. The presentation is directed by Debra Whitfield whose Off-Broadway credits include Tech Support (also playwright), Olympics Über Alles and The Banana Monologues.
The presentation will be followed by TRU’s renowned “Dollars and Sense” industry talkback about the developmental track for this show, with Janel C. Scarborough, producer/creative investor (Single Black Female, Thoughts of a Colored Man, Tony nominated revival for colored girls…), co-founder TRU Diversity, and other panelists will be announced soon.
