✦ Synopsis

Bleak, funny and excruciatingly accurate, Sex with a Stranger examines what it is to be in your twenties, lonely, hollow and uncertain. Adam meets Grace in a club. They go back to hers. Earlier that day, his girlfriend watches as he prepares for his big night out. 'A dazzling achievement' - Independent 'Wonderfully frank, true and tender.... extraordinarily touching' - Telegraph 'Skilfully constructed, painful-to-watch but very funny... a talent on the move' - Whatsonstage.com **
