A play written by David Mamet that examines the sex lives of two men and two women in the 1970s. The play is filled with profanity and regional jargon that reflects the working-class language of Chicago. The characters’ relationships become hindered by the caustic nature of their words, as much of the dialogue includes insults and arguments. The play presents “intimate relationships [as] minefields of buried fears and misunderstandings”.
Sexual Perversity in Chicago was performed on October 15th, 17th, 18th and 19th 2014 in the Union Concert Hall.
