Production Notes

Lascivious Something explores the complexity of our choices, the decisions we make in our personal, social or political life and the shadow of consequences. The play delicately and sensually explores these notions through the metaphor of wine, sex and relationships. It's the autumn of 1980 in the United States of America, Ronald Reagan is about to be elected to his first term as President. Such matters are of little consequence for August, an earthy expatriate who swapped his American materialism for secluded Greek vineyards long ago – or are they? As August's ex-girlfriend suddenly appears on the peaceful island where he wiles away his day’s wine-making with his sensual wife, a love triangle quickly devolves into a metaphorical, alcohol-fuelled parable that is as political and economic as it is erotic. To make this wonderful production even more visceral, we are providing a wine tasting before the show. Our wine expert will take you through this journey by stimulating your mind with knowledge and your palate with some of the best wine you can try. Come join us and get inspired. Please note this play contains full female nudity
