An apocalyptic rom-com

Five gifted comic actors get busy on microphones and fruit

in this slippery and subversive take on a classic radio play

and the world as we know it.

SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

Celina is a journalist stuck writing clickbait for a lifestyle blog. It falls to her to road test a new book, The 44 Sex Acts that Will Change your Life. All she has to do is experience 44 different kinds of sex, across the full spectrum of kink by Friday.

 

Problem is: she needs a partner. And the only person available is her nemesis, brooding animal activist/office mail boy Alab Delusa. Sworn enemies, they now have one week to explore the endlessly undulating terrain of sex, from BDSM to role-play, from polyamory to exhibitionism. And with no time to recover. Can all this extra friction between them strike real sparks? 

 

From the razor sharp quill of David Finnigan (Kill Climate Deniers) comes a pressure cooker sexcom come radio play about what drives humanity to go all the way toward the end of civilisation as we know it.  Close your eyes (if you must), have your ears felt up by foley effects, and wonder what it might be to peg someone in a camping supplies store at 10am on a Wednesday.

The actors share great chemistry and the joy and momentum of

the theatrical spectacle is stripped bare to its primal beating heart.

Girl meets boy.

Girl hates boy.

Girl f***s boy 44 ways.

The world collapses.

A deceptively clever script from the razor-sharp pen of David Finnigan.
