Close Enough To Touch

Book

Red Ladder and Silent Uproar present Close Enough To Touch, an intimate, unflinching show about secrets, sex … and toilets. 

What happens when our deepest urges are shrouded in shame? What happens when we can’t articulate our desires, even to ourselves?

Close Enough to Touch follows a man who has a girlfriend … and a secret. In this gripping, intimate drama, audiences are taken into the world of cruising – anonymous sex in public places. As our nameless character’s secret builds, so does his shame. The play swings between passion and pathos as we watch a young man struggle to find pleasure, acceptance and, crucially, the language to express himself.
