Lipstick Traces

Outcry Theatre presents
Lipstick Traces
Based on Lipstick Traces: A Secret History of the Twentieth Century by Greil Marcus

A Narrator with a Ph.D. joins Sex Pistols’ manager and self-proclaimed mastermind, Malcolm McLaren, to recount an alternative history of the 20th century via the Sex Pistols, the Cabaret Voltaire, the May ’68 riots, and a handful of medieval heretics. Lipstick Traces is a physically ecstatic and intellectually nervy theatrical vision of “movements in culture that raised no monuments… movements that barely left a trace.”

​Lipstick Traces was originally created and produced by Rude Mechs
The world premiere production took place in Austin, TX at The Off Center in 2000

Directed by Becca Johnson-Spinos
