Split Britches
Split Britches is an American performance troupe that has been producing work internationally since 1980. Theater scholar Sue Ellen Case asserts that the group's work "has defined the issues and terms of academic writing on lesbian theater, butch-femme role-playing, feminist mimesis, and the spectacle of desire." Based in New York City, Split Britches maintains long-standing collaborations with several institutions, including La Mama Experimental Theatre Company (where they are a resident company), the Wow Café (co-founded by members Peggy Shaw and Lois Weaver), and Dixon Place.
