JAYNE COUNTY - MAN ENOUGH TO BE A WOMAN

World - A Birth of a Nation

"World - A Birth Of A Nation" was a play written by Wayne County and directed by Tony Ingrassia. The play was billed as a "homosexual fantasy" and was intended to present the audience with so much sexual content that any shock value was eliminated.

Wayne played two characters - Florence Nitingale and Ethel Nitingale (Florence's sister). The play also featured Cherry Vanilla (billed under her original name of Cathy Dorritie) who played a necrophiliac nurse by the name of Tilly.

The play was set in a hospital and dealt with the castration of the male sex. The patients in the hospital all had psychological problems and the play dealt with various sexual perversions and fetishes.

A number of the scenes were highly controversial featuring such things as a member of the cast urinating on stage, necrophilia with a dead dog and John Wayne giving birth to a baby out of his anus.

"World - The Birth of a Nation" was well received and those who attended during its run included Andy Warhol.
