Over dit product
Product Information
Anarchy in High Heels is not a state of dress; it's a state of mind. A San Francisco porno theater might be the last place you'd expect to plant the seed of a feminist troupe, but truth is stranger than fiction. In 1972, access to birth control and a burn-your-bra ethos were leading young women to repudiate their 1950s conservative upbringing and embrace a new liberation. Denise Larson was a timid twenty-four-year-old actress wannabe when, at an after-hours countercultural event, The People's Nickelodeon, she accidentally created Les Nickelettes. This banding together of ¬¬like-minded women with an anything-goes spirit unlocked a deeply hidden female humor. For the first time, Denise allowed the suppressed satirical thoughts dancing through her head to come out in the open. Together with Les Nickelettes, which quickly became a brazen women's lib troupe, she presented a series of feminist skits, stunts, and musical comedy plays. In 1980, The Bay Guardian described the group as "nutty, messy, flashy, trashy, and very funny." With sisterhood providing the moxie, Denise took on leadership positions not common for women at the time: playwright, stage director, producer, and administrative/artistic director. But, in the end, the most important thing she learned was the power of female friendship.

Reviews
2022 IPPY Awards Silver Winner in Women's Issues "The engrossing book addresses the importance of empowering marginalized individuals, who have so much to say ... A meaningful, feminist joyride that travels back in time." -- Kirkus Reviews "The best thing about the Nickelettes was the way they resisted compromising to fit into acceptable norms for women at the time. Using humor and theatre, the affinity of this zany girl family sustained them as they embraced an aesthetic of anti-seriousness through play and laughter. And in the process, they learned to value themselves and each other." --Ilene English, author of Hippie Chick: Coming of Age in the '60s "Pluck and gumption animate Larson's telling. If you, too, fantasize about an art project that seems far away or impossible, just somehow throwing your zany ideas out there and making them happen, you'll likely find a primer and an inspiration in Anarchy in High Heels." --San Francisco Chronicle "An intriguing, humorous, poignant dive into the origins of modern female comedy and friendship. For a funny ride worthy of multiple reads, classroom study, or book club feature, Anarchy in High Heels: A Memoir by Denise Larson should be at the top of your list." --Reader's Favorite 5-STAR Review "This is a delightfully nostalgic peek into the Baby Boomer-era of funny, feminist Americana." --Anna Fields, author of The Girl in the Show - Three Generations of Comedy, Culture, and Feminism "Denise Larson proves a wise and witty guide to the taboo-busting, iconoclastic underground scene of '70s San Francisco, charting the development of her own artistic growth and confidence through spearheading the subversive, ground-breaking ensemble Les Nickelettes, who served notice that women could be outspoken, raunchy, and above all funny." --Ellin Stein, author of That's Not Funny, That's Sick: The National Lampoon and the Comedy Insurgents Who Captured the Mainstream
