Mrs. Phu's Cleansing Juices (and also Salads)

by ​Emily L. Witt
directed by Krissy Vanderwarker
Entering Mrs. Phu's means crossing a gauntlet of steadfast Reaganites and pro-lifers. Just on the other side of the trenches lies a world where a waiter wrangles eccentric customers, a hippie lady floats aimlessly, and three very different women gather to receive abortions under the constraints of stringent federal mandates.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Recommended for mature audiences.​​​​​​​​​​​​
