Sexual Perversity in Chicago is a play about twenty-somethings trying to make sense of their lives. It is about the terror we all have of actually connecting with another human being, and the excuses we find for evading intimacy. It is about the unbelievable and often hilarious ways we manipulate language to get what we want and to avoid recognizing things we don't want to deal with. Thirty years after its creation, this play still feels remarkably vivid and fresh, the newly discovered voice of a young writer who was to go on to change the face of American theatre. 1984 present David Mamet's raunchy comedy of bad manners dealing with men, women, sex and relationships, and the fallout that inevitably results. Sexual Perversity in Chicago runs from the 2nd to the 6th of September at the Teachers Club, 36 Parnell Square, at 8pm.
