1972: The Future of Sex

It's 1972. An era of possibility and polyester and pubic hair. While Ziggy Stardust is on

Top of the Pops, Penny is writing an essay on

Lady Chatterley's Lover, Christine is watching

Deep Throat and Brian is confused.Devised by The Wardrobe Ensemble,

1972: The Future of Sex incorporates the company's trademark theatricality, irreverent humour and ensemble ingenuity to tell the story of three couples having sex for the first time – and a country on the brink of a sexual awakening.Commissioned by Shoreditch Town Hall, the play was first seen there in 2014, before a UK tour in 2015, including performances at Bristol Old Vic and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. It was revived at the Bristol Old Vic in 2019.
