BLUE BALLS by Meredith Metcalf, directed by Leah Faye Caddigan

About This Show

Emma is a virgin with a lot of hesitations about “loosing it” on the night her and Mara bring back two guys (Tom and Jack) from the club. Little do the ladies know, Tom -Emma’s potential “first”- is also having hesitations about his first time…committing murder.  In this hjinks-riddled screwball comedy, themes of consent, agency, and sex-positivity are explored in a blood-soaked macabre masterpiece for the post #MeToo movement.
