A couple years back, this "bloody-disgusting love story" from playwright Tracy Letts was made into a feature film directed by William Friedkin and starring Ashley Judd and Harry Connick Jr. It was a squirmer -- pretty tough for even hardened gore-hounds to sit through. So will this live version produced by Tucson's Live Theatre Workshop be worth your tank of gas? Well, everything else being equal, it does contain adult language, drug use, violence, nudity -- and a plague of rabid parasitic aphids. You tell us.
