Publisher's Synopsis
Crude... rude... socially unacceptable... funny... explosive... sublime... dark... glorious... divine... sophisticated... intelligent... superbly choreographed... utterly hilarious... raucously filthy. These are just some of the words critics used to describe "Jerry Springer - The Opera", the show that first blew audiences (including the show's namesake) away at Edinburgh's Fringe Festival and at its opening at the National Theatre.;This book is everything the theatrical show is-and more. All the raucously filthy lyrics, the entire script, thirty-six full colour photographs of cast and crew from performances, rehearsals, and behind the scenes, as well as a revealing introduction by the show's creators Stewart Lee and Richard Thomas. It's triumph, tragedy and trailer trash as high art meets low in this revealing book.
