Let’s go LIONS! It’s the big Homecoming Pep Rally at Christian High School Academy and there is no better time to talk about Abstinence. You’ll be dazzled by the pom squad, cheer on the football captain, and discover what’s Not Holy from Principal Luke’s smokin’ hot wife. Local performer and creator Lilly Percifield channels her experience with West Texas Evangelical Purity Culture into a ridiculous one-woman comedy that pokes fun at the absurd personalities and outrageous hypocrisies of purity culture. This wildly joyful performance runs two nights only at The VORTEX.
