Inhaltsangabe

"[Teeth is] really a show not about vagina dentata but about the cancerous cycles of self-loathing, misogyny, and violence that fester at the heart of purity culture. Well, it’s also about vagina dentata." —Vulture

Dawn O’Keefe is an Evangelical teen with a bizarre secret: two rows of gleaming white teeth perfectly placed to preserve her chastity. When the supposedly upright Christian men around her prove more interested in taking advantage of her body than in protecting it, they quickly learn to keep their hands (and other appendages) to themselves. From Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Michael R. Jackson (A Strange Loop) and Anna K. Jacobs (POP!), and based on the controversial cult classic film of the same name, Teeth is a toe-tapping, gut-busting, musical satire that gets under the skin of patriarchy and our sex-obsessed and sex-repressed society.
