Three guys. One lesbian. One time machine. And a planet full of space babes. Easily the audience favorite of the entire DMTheatrics repertory, this rollicking, foul-mouthed, big-hearted sci-fi sex farce opened at the late, lamented NADA Classic in June of 2000 and played a demand encore engagement in August of that same year during the 2000 Pure Pop Festival. In the year of our Lord 1992, we have conquered the moon and Mars, and now, the US of A sends its finest space pilots to conquer… time! Back, back, back in time they travel to find themselves on a planet inhabited entirely by women! Watch in wonder, horror, awe, and dismay as Captain Buck Fuster, Doctor Rod Johnson, Engineer Randy Willing, and the redoubtable Skippy (with his sock puppet Timmy) venture through this alien world! Can the notorious womanizer Buck Fuster find true happiness with the enlightened political activist Kara? Will Doctor Rod Johnson succeed in his dastardly plan for world domination? Is Randy Willing really the Lesbian Messiah? And will Skippy finally lose his virginity? Inspired by the raunch cinema of the late 1960’s, and drive-in movies of the 1950’s, Amazons in Chains is an inspired melange of audience participation, razor sharp farce, and biting satire on gender politics and the mysteries of romance -- and a blast from start to finish. But, then, we’re biased.
