TriArts artistic director John Simpkins (Pool Boy, Bloodsong of Love) directs the Tony Award-winning musical that has a book by Larry L. King and Peter Masterson, with a score by Carol Hall. Whorehouse will run through July 15.

Here's how it's billed: "Miss Mona's Chicken Ranch brothel comes to life in this rollicking production of the award-winning musical. When crusading television watchdog Melvin P. Thorpe ogles the whorehouse as his next moral target, Miss Mona, her bevy of working girls and Sherriff Ed Earl Dodd must buck the muckraker to keep the ranch open."

The design team includes Erik D. Diaz (scenic design), Chris Dallos (lighting design), Michelle Humphrey (costume design) and Jay Stirone (sound design).
