What to do with shock entertainment when "lesbian" refers to the house-proud, Subaru-driving couple next door, and sex parties happen every Thursday night in a suburban backsplit?

Make fun of it, of course.

London, England-based actor/singer/composer Richard Thomas could think of nothing more appropriate than Tourette's Diva, a miniature opera about two obnoxious members of a white-trash family having at each other.

Audiences at the Battersea Arts Centre in 2000 loved it so much that Thomas returned the following year with How to Write an Opera About Jerry Springer. It went on to become an international phenomenon as Jerry Springer: The Opera.
