Lips

Grace is a social justice warrior who hates her lips. Juju is a suburban princess with an extensive Gua Sha collection. Maura is super worried she might be basic. The three best friends are having a sleepover tonight, except Grace’s lip dysmorphia is really killing the vibe. Luckily Juju’s dad is a plastic surgeon, and he keeps some of his tools closer to home than you'd expect. Will Grace choose a life of lipxury over her values, and will one of the girls be brave enough to be her injector? LIPS is an interrogation of the age-old decision every woman eventually must make: to inject or not to inject?

IRT Theater is a grassroots laboratory for independent theater and performance in New York City, providing space and support to a new generation of artists. Tucked away in the old Archive Building in Greenwich Village, IRT’s mission is to build a community of emerging and established artists by creating a home for the development and presentation of new work.

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts and the New York State Legislature; New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in Partnership with the City Council; A.R.T./New York’s NYC Small Theatres Fund made possible with support from the Howard Gilman Foundation & support for ASL interpretation provided in part through funding from Access A.R.T./New York.
