While spying their wives at a "Girls' Night Out," a group of unemployed steelworkers from Buffalo sees how much they enjoy watching male strippers. Jealous, out of work and feeling emasculated, the men come up with a bold and unclothed way to make some quick cash. In preparing, they find themselves extremely exposed; not merely physically but emotionally. As they conquer their fears, self-consciousness and prejudices, the men come to discover that they're stronger as a group, and the strength that they find in each other gives them the individual courage to "let it go.”
OCP Artistic Director Garrett Bradley will direct this show. Contact garrett@owossoplayers.com for more information.
Character Breakdown
JERRY LUKOWSKI
An unemployed mill worker, fighting to maintain his pride and the custody of his only son. All-American jock and the definitive man's man.

Jerry's estranged wife and high school sweetheart. She wants what is best for her son. Strong business woman, but also compassionate and motherly.
NATHAN LUKOWSKI
Jerry’s 12 year old son. Stuck in the middle of a custody battle between Jerry and Pam.
DAVE BUKATINSKY
Jerry's best friend and fellow unemployed mill worker. Very much a man's man, but more of a follower than leader. The definitive sidekick.
GEORGIE BUKATINSKY
Dave's wife. She loves her husband, and worries about him. Loud, outgoing and brash. She is the "leader" of her group of girlfriends.

An unemployed supervisor at the mill. Hot Metal's choreographer. Thinks his worth comes from providing for his wife, so he hides his unemployment from her.
