It wouldn't be Jerry Springer without a little controversy.
So it's no surprise that "Jerry Springer: The Opera," an award-
winning British musical that opens in Boston on Friday in a
SpeakEasy Stage Company production, is kicking up a fuss ahead of
time.
The show, which imagines trash-TV host Jerry Springer trying to
get more control over his broadcast before he has a near-death
experience is, indeed, filthy. There are tap dancing Ku Klux
Klansmen, transgendered whoremongers, and a dream sequence that
includes Satan and Adam and Eve physically going head to head with
Jesus.
