“No to prettiness, no to glamour, no to glistening muscular limbs. Yes to intensity, yes to body heat, yes to wildness, freedom and in your face defiance. Faye Driscoll (Wow Mom, Wow) has produced a giddy anarchism.” – Dance Magazine
In Wow Mom, Wow, post modern dance meets pop musical meets death metal fantasy. Through an evening of heartbreak, belly laughs and butt talk an absurdly logical alternate dimension is illuminated.
