When Raina arrives at her spoken word gig to see her exes in the audience, all the questions she's had about her past sexual experiences begin to surface. Through poetry, comedy, and one very awkward encounter with a cheese string, she begins to explore questions about bad sex, drunk sex, and the grey areas of consent.
'A challenging and multifaceted show with a figure of raw talent at its heart.' ****
‘Astonishing moments of word play, startling metaphor and poetic story telling drip and drop throughout’ ****
