Orgasmo Adulto Escapes from the Zoo…Written by Dario Fo and Franca Rame in support of the Italian Womens movement, this is a grotesquely comic look at women’s sexual situation in post-modern times. Orgasmo Adulto Escapes from the Zoodramatizes different viewpoints and different stories that intersect at the heart of the same human experience– mankind’s struggle against oppression, both personal and political, in order to claim the one true inalieble right–freedom!
