“Pluto is the god of the underworld, and a nefarious lover, so it is fitting that Plutonium Playhouse celebrates sex this February, just in time for Valentines Day!
THE SEX FESTIVAL is a series of plays, readings, photos, music and videos that explore sex, sexuality, relationships, gender and the human body. You won’t find the XXX stuff you can watch on the internet. You’ll find work by artists that is by turns erotic, comedic, sadistic, horny, ecstatic, anguished, playful and orgasmic.
Above all, theatre celebrates words. In this case, a lot of dirty ones.” — Thom Fitzgerald, Artistic Director

The Sex Festival February 6th to 27th 2012
