Sex can be ridiculous in controversial Swan play
9:24am Friday 25th April 2008
A BOLD play about sex, love and betrayal is at Worcester's Swan Theatre next week.
The Swan Theatre Amateur Company (STAC) will stage The Blue Room from Tuesday. In Sir David Hare's controversial play, adapted from cult film La Ronde, two actors portray 10 sexual scenes as five different couples, drawing on the idea that sex is often ridiculous.
"I think Worcester can handle it," said actor Bob Churchill, who stars with Emily Portsmouth. "We've got a jazz trio accompanying the action, and the play's funny too, in a poignant kind of way."
Directed by Worcester Live's Chris Jaeger, it contains nudity, explicit sexuality and strong language. It runs until Saturday, May 3.
Tickets are available from the box office on 01905 611427.
