Theatre Phoenix Theatre:
When people think ‘Debbie

‘Musical Theatre’, right? The
most important theatrical
event of the twenty-first
century! Or not. Debbie Does
Dallas is a modern morality tale
told as a comic musical of
tragic proportions in the
language of the rodeo-pornofootball circus. Based on the
1970s ‘blue movie’ of the same
name, the story follows Debbie
Benton, an all-American,
small-town sweetheart on her
coming-of-age quest to realize
her dream... to become a Texas
Cowboys Cheerleader! The
only thing standing in her way
is the bus fare to Dallas and the
inequity of her minimum wage
job. So Debbie and her friends
form Teen Services! A small
company willing to take on BIG
jobs. Debbie Does Dallas
manages to have it all: beauty,
brains and a great sense of
humor! Recommended for
hopelessly immature adults
