Darebin Arts Speakeasy: Mature Skin
15 March @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm AEDT

A disgustingly sexy rom-vom
Breakout trans playwright Gabrielle Fallen and acclaimed queer indie theatre director Justin Nott have teamed up for the premiere production of a salacious new comedy that’s as funny as it is dark, and as sick as it is sensual.
Two strangers meet in a nightclub bathroom. They both work for Australia’s leading all-natural skincare brand. They’re twenty years apart in age and paygrade, and one of them has an insatiable desire for infected skin…
With sensual top notes and undercurrents of filth, Mature Skin is more rom-vom than rom-com. An unflinching and darkly funny play that dissects the nastiness and beauty of queer bodies, and the powers that dominate them.
