Penetration

Viac o knihe

'Penetration', by Carolyn Lloyd-Davies, is a socially provocative piece of theatre, of particular significance in the light of recent shocking reports in the UK about the low level of prosecutions for rape and sexual assault.Based on true events, the play follows the stories of Anna, a rape complainant, and Sean, the defendant, with insight and sensitivity. Anna's manipulative and coercive boyfriend James, adds an additional undertone to the play, as does the perspective of Felicity, Sean's mother. This heart-breaking, multi-layered play jolts the audience into exploring the implications of consent, focusing on the impact of toxic coercive relationships, the power of social media and the need for healthy sexual boundaries especially when alcohol or drugs blur the lines.
