Last summer Bethany, our resident stage manager, insisted that I had to see a little film from the 80s called “About Last Night.” After the credits rolled and the dialogue started, I looked over at her and exclaimed, “I know this, it’s Sexual Perversity in Chicago.” And from that point on Bethany insisted it had to be part of this year’s staged reading series. To be fair, I didn’t take a whole lot of convincing.
In many ways Sexual Perversity is the perfect compact representation of David Mamet and his singular writing style. From the rapid-fire witty dialogue to the exceptionally not politically correct black humor, he manages to entertain you while exploring relationships between men and women through his own twisted lens. We’ve had an absolute blast working on this script and hope you enjoy the show.
