Close Enough to Touch

A play about sex, heartbreak…and toilets. This young man has a secret. He has a girlfriend, he’s looking for work, and he spends his free time cruising in men’s toilets. This one-person show is a funny, intimate and raw look at the pleasures and pains of desire. Henry Roberts’ play explores hidden desires and secret shames, and asks how long we can keep a secret before the world catches up. The play previously performed at Theatre 503 in London and the script was longlisted in the RSC’s 37 Plays project. “A raw, empathetic, and intelligent piece on the challenges we still face with the ambiguity of our sexuality and the added complexity regarding our relationship to masculinity.” A Youngish Perspective
