"the qualms"
went last night to see a play at steppenwolf and thought i might give it a bit of a boost (to the huge readership of this LJ ;-) ). mind you, i don't think it's for everyone, but read a bit to see if it might be for you.
it's by bruce norris, who won a pulitzer and a tony for clybourne park, so we're in good hands as far as the writing. it takes place in the home of a couple who are hosting a regular gathering for swingers. a new couple has been invited. will they fit in and be accepted? will they be able to relax and join in? will anyone ever drink some of that cabernet?
this play is full of humor, awkwardness, uncomfortableness, more humor, and cringing. it contains a LOT of profanity, no nudity, lots of talk about sex, sex acts, sexual politics, and penis sizes. it is guaranteed to have something that will offend you--it is almost certainly written to offend everyone at some point. but it is really funny--or at least i found it to be so.
