Leslye Headland's runaway off-Broadway hit makes its Midwest premiere at Profiles Theatre in a brazen production helmed by Artistic Director Darrell W. Cox. It's a strange mean-girls-gone-wild scenario, a foul-mouthed comedy that intensifies into something of a horror show, particularly for those of us in the examined age range. On the eve of a friend's (frenemy is probably more like it) wedding, a group of young women get smashed, high, and into varying degrees of trouble in a seemingly endless parade of substance abuse. Headland shows a gift for humor, but in this portrait of semi-privileged, young, urban self-destruction, the irony is that we're most definitely laughing at them and not with.
