“Sexy, raunchy, fucking funny, and utterly disgusting in the best possible way” - Aaron Posner
“I think I screamed about seven times and then started crying” - Isabel Manning
In this dark comedy based on the Greek myth Phaedra, a cam girl attempts to reconnect with her estranged and neglectful mother at a family party, only to realize that her mother’s new boyfriend is actually her main client.
The raucous and deliciously drama-filled new work breathes fresh life into the almost 3,000 year old story, touching on issues of sex work, sexual expression in the digital age, and family dynamics.
