30 DAY FREE TRIAL
Presented by The Blue Room Theatre
Summer Nights, Charlotte Otton and Andrew
Sutherland
Lo-fi aesthetics meet a fast wi-fi
connection in the hands of two
desperate, multi-award winning,
horny af theatre makers. It’s the
raucous and personal hot take
you didn’t know you needed,
about how to fill that gaping hole inside and how to do it
for free...a dripping mess of desires, kinks, cringe-erotica, and
one laptop that’s seen too much!

Adult Story Time Part 1.
‘The Epicene Butcher’
Presented by THE RECHABITE
Performed over 400 times around
the world, much awarded, much
loved, ‘The Epicene Butcher’ is
Kahn’s first famous foray into
analogue television, erotic nihilism
and paper play. Seven stories
that run the gamut from monasteries to manga, from the
sex silly to the sublime. “Kahn is brilliant. I came away with
my mind slightly blown.” Annie Lennox.

‘We Didn’t Come to Hell
for the Croissants’
Presented by THE RECHABITE
Silver Ovation Award winning
sequel to cult hit ‘The Epicene
Butcher’, a rollicking, rude spin on
an ancient Japanese storytelling
culture, caught in a riff of manga, paper play and the slickest,
freshest and darkest reflections on explicit orgiastic
sex, death, and all that hides between. “Perfect mix of cheap
thrills and dark humour” The Critter.
