Anyone see this yet Off Broadway, beyond the banner ad on the site? Curious to know more.

Just like the playwright's earlier offering, Burning, the writing is what you would expect from a rather slow sex-obsessed 8-year-old, but the simulated sex scenes are delightfully (unintentionally) hilarious. One pities the actors, but these things no longer destroy careers, so no need to worry on their behalf.

The show deals with a young man wanting to get into the film industry. Soon after getting a camera and some financial support from good old Dad; he is on his way. What kind of films? Why Porn of course. The cast of seven gives their all in this very sexual play. Six are required to strip down completely for artistic reasons. I actually enjoyed this show for the pure honesty shown. The performance I attended was filled with a good number of women that I expected to leave at intermission. No one left. During intermission the stage crew brought out a King size bed for use in act II. Let me say that bed got a good work out.

JUNK: playwright needs a therapist & Artistic Director needs to learn to read. Cast fine. nm

A friend of mine left after the first act, she was so disgusted.

I guess she's not into Intimacy.

Doubtless a traumatic final performance.

Also playing in the same building: The Surrender.
It's quite steamy in this venue. The landlord must be saving a fortune on heating bills!
