If you’ve seen the cult indie horror film that Teeth is based on, you probably have some questions about what exactly inspired someone to make a musical about “Vagina Dentata.” Luckily, we’ve invited the show’s creators, Michael R. Jackson (2020 Pulitzer Prize winner for his musical, A Strange Loop) and Anna K. Jacobs, to walk us through it. The story of Teeth follows Dawn O’Keefe, an evangelical teenager who has a powerful secret…namely, that she has teeth in her vagina. With a pop-rock inflected score, impactful political messages about purity culture and violence against women, and a good dose of campy humor, Teeth is sure to be as much of a cult classic as the film it’s based on.
