Adapted from a book-length poem written in and about the Roaring Twenties, "The Wild Party"
tells the story of one wild evening in the Manhattan apartment shared by Queenie and Burrs, a
vaudeville dancer and a vaudeville clown. In a relationship marked by vicious behavior and
recklessness (mirroring the time in which they live), they decide to throw a party to end all
parties.
As the guests arrive, we meet an assortment of people living on the edge. Queenie and Burrs
set out to make each other jealous, but Queenie begins to fall in love with her conquest named
Black. After a long night of decadence, Burrs' jealousy erupts and he comes to a violent end
at Black's hand. In the stark light of a new day, Queenie moves out into a brighter world,
although not necessarily a brighter future, leaving the passed-out revelers in her wake.
