"A white-trash invocation of the apocalypse ... [featuring] a hilarious cat fight; a lurid, fully visible blowjob; a death's-head pinata bursting with syringes; and more potty-talk than the movie Kids. The titular shit is a new, sublime kind of heroin that has been contaminated with a flesh-eating bacteria by Nebraska's governor to exterminate Omaha's junkie community. One by one, a circle of addicts -- an overweight, depressed nurse, an enslaved hooker, and their friends Flounder and Rooster -- sprout bleeding sores on their arms and faces, all the while planning for one final rage against the machine. ... Crass! Funny! Unforgivable! A celebration of sleaze!" --City Paper

Featuring Catherine Aselford, Lucrezia Blozia, Brian Cassidy, Carlos Manuel Davis, Tony Greenberg, Michael Manoukian, Gale Munro, and Joe Wildermuth.

"This very fun show possesses all the lurid ingredients that have been missing from 14th Street for some time: hookers, heroin, syringes, blowjobs, bare breasts, naked men (Crew Club excepted) and corrupt cops. It's an unsettling recipie indeed... A bit subversive and thoroughly vulgar in all the best ways! Cherry Red doesn't miss a beat! Angel Shitis wonderful!" --The Blade

Featuring Jay Barber, Barbara Catrett, Camille Gurnell, Johnny Kat, Monique LaForce, Phil Sawicki, John Slone, Vince Terlep, and Stacey Whitmire. With cameos by Judith Baicich, Christopher Henley, Little, Emily Rems, Emerie Snyder, Rabbi Weiss, and Lucas Zarwell.
