by Ruby Thomas
Love is just sex. And sex is just chance. And chance is just timing. And free will.
Come on
It beats swiping right.
When B spills coffee down A's shirt, an old spark is rekindled. But in a world of infinite possibilities, monogamy is tough. Straight, gay, casual, polyamorous, they find themselves irresistibly drawn both to the new and to each other. In a relationship of ever-changing boundaries, the couple question anything and everything as they attempt to navigate modern love.
Funny, smart and sexy, Ruby Thomas' debut play probes contemporary ideas about sexuality, gender and the need to connect, before we die.

First performed at the Hampstead Theatre in 2019, Ruby Thomas brings us into the relationship between two characters (A and B) and the infinite possibilities and temptations they have when they open up their relationship. Things take a turn when new and possibly exciting offers and opportunities appear."
