The first funny feminist musical revue for men and women, The Housewives' Cantata uses a cabaret style à la Jacques Brel... to tell the story of three women, one of whom goes from housewife to becoming the first woman President of the United States. Songs featured in the revue include "What is a woman?," "Dirty dish rag," "Guinevere among the grapefruit peels," "Adultery waltz" and "Divorce lament." The Off-Broadway production produced by Cheryl Crawford was praised as "A sprightly songfest" by The New York Times.
