Tonight at the Fishtank: Winning hearts and minds with tits

​Last month’s public reading of Sarah Palin‘s Going Rogue at the Fishtank Performance Studio was so successful that producer Lisa Cordes knew it could be the start of an ongoing series. The problem was finding a timely book written by someone who’d created great political theater or a media spectacle. Lucky for Cordes, Miss USA runner-up, model, underage sex-tape star, and conservative conscience Carrie Prejean has released her own tome, Still Standing: The Untold Story of My Fight Against Gossip, Hate, and Political Attacks.

Tonight, witness Cordes, David Wayne Reed, Janet Henry, Phil Hooser and other luminaries of KC Theater give what will likely be the most tolerable interpretation of Prejean’s work possible

“These things are sort of predicated on the idea that the worse the book is, the better a time we’ll have with it,” Cordes says. “I read this and thought, ‘This will work very well.'”
