The Wardrobe Ensemble brings its award-winning comedy 1972: The Future of Sex to its hometown of Bristol following a smash hit Edinburgh run and a nationwide tour.
Fashion and music have seen flares and disco come full circle since the 70s, so what about our sex lives? The Wardrobe Ensemble’s latest production asks just that, delving into an era of possibility, polyester and pubic hair to find the answers.
As Ziggy Stardust shatters gender norms on Top of the Pops, Penny grapples with an essay on Lady Chatterley’s Lover, Christine watches Deepthroat and Brian experiments with lipstick and glitter.
Inappropriate crushes and wonderfully awkward first sexual encounters are set to live music in this funny and moving exploration of adolescent sex and sexuality.
Showing until 26 March, 8pm, Tickets £8
The Wardrobe Theatre, The Old Market Assembly, 25 West Street, Old Market, BS2 0DF
